Bible in a Year:
Be careful that you do not forget the Lord. Deuteronomy 6:12
It was just before Christmas, and her kids were having a difficult time with gratitude. She knew how easy it was to slip into that kind of thinking, but she also knew she wanted something better for the hearts of her children. So she went through the house and placed red bows on light switches, the pantry and refrigerator doors, the washing machine and dryer, and the water faucets. With each bow there was a handwritten note: Some of the gifts God gives us are easy to overlook, so Ive put a bow on them. He is so good to our family. Lets not forget where the gifts come from.
In Deuteronomy 6, we see that the future of the nation of Israel involved the conquest of existing places. So they would move into large flourishing cities they did not build (v. 10), occupy houses filled with good things they didnt provide, and benefit from wells and vineyards and olive groves they didnt dig or plant (v. 11). All these blessings could be easily traced back to a single sourcethe Lord your God (v. 10). And while God lovingly provided these things and more, Moses wanted to make sure the people were careful not to forget (v. 12).
During certain seasons of life its easy to forget. But lets not lose sight of Gods goodness, the source of all our blessings.
Name five blessings in your life. Why are you grateful for them? How will you thank God for them today?
Loving Father, You are the source of every blessing in our lives. In our pride we often imagine otherwise, but we know better. We do. Thank You for all Your gifts.
