Do This in Remembrance of Me
In this powerful message, we're reminded of the profound importance of remembrance in our spiritual lives. The story of Josiah finding the lost Book of the Covenant serves as a stark warning about how easily we can forget God's goodness and faithfulness. Just as the Israelites forgot to celebrate Passover for centuries, we too can become complacent and lose sight of our spiritual heritage. The institution of Communion by Jesus echoes the same theme - 'Do this in remembrance of me.' This call to remember isn't just about the past; it's about shaping our present and future. When we actively recall God's faithfulness, it strengthens our faith and helps us face current challenges. The practice of writing down God's fulfilled promises on poster boards is a beautiful, tangible way to stand on His faithfulness. As we partake in Communion, we're not just performing a ritual, but we're becoming caretakers of God's holy story, ensuring it's passed down to future generations.
