Monday’s Musings: Those Were the Days USED

Modified and used 10-1-20
Psalm 143:5 I remember the days long past; I meditate on all your deeds; I contemplate your handiwork.

Once and a while I’ll see an e-mail or Facebook post that prompts us to “remember when” by showing pictures of things we were familiar with when growing up. --Transistor radios, Sky King, clamp on roller skates – a recent one probably had twenty five or thirty things I hadn’t thought about in years.  It was quite a trip down memory lane.  I hear a lot about the good old days.  On the other hand some people look back at the past with bitterness, regret and resentments.  There are hurts that they won’t let go of.  King David could look back to God’s good actions in behalf of God’s people when times got rough.  Maybe we should consider the past in the same way.  Consider all God has done for us and then let go, remembering that God is in the present too.  Each day we are making a “good old day” for our future. 

Loving God, thank you for your faithfulness and steadfast love.  Help us, today to remember your blessings in the past and look for them in the present and future.  In Christ’s name we pray, amen.
Grace and Peace,
Paige
