Raise an Ebenezer
Many of us take time to remember those who have passed on. For instance, we memorialize our fallen soldiers with wreaths on Memorial Day or perhaps we place flowers on the graves of loved ones on their birthdays. In the Bible we find several people raising stone moments to remember God’s faithfulness. Perhaps it might help us to trust God especially in the hard times of life if we did something similar.
