A Solid Reminder
Memory is a weakness that many of us have, especially when it comes to remembering what God has done for us. The Jewish people seen God do miracle after miracle, but yet they still found themselves in a place of doubt. When we come to the Book of Joshua we see change is about to take place. They are about to cross the Jordan River into the land that God had promised to them. When the river is parted God tells them to take up stones and to build and altar as a memorial these stones teach us something about them, but they are also a reminder for us. In Joshua 4:4-5 and 20-24 we see, I. The Stones Remind us of Where they Came From. (Vs. 4-5), II. The Stones Remind us Not to Go Back. (Vs. 20-22) III. The Stones Remind Us of Who Brought us Through. (Vs. 23-24).
