The things that our hearts remember affect our lives today. Emotions flood our souls when we remember significant events, victories, defeats, joyous occasions, sad circumstances, and life’s turning points. As the emotions rise, we feel different than just a moment before the memory strikes us, and then we act differently than we might have before.
Deuteronomy 4:9 says, “Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life.” One way to protect our souls is to make sure that we remember all the good things that God has done for us and the truths He has taught us.
