Come Monday I embark on this journey of discovery. Again. One that I actually missed doing. One that taught me beyond I could imagine. One that reinforced much needed foundations in my growing. One that showed me the definition of discipline. One that I believe, He has planned for me this season.
Cause in Him, there is a time for everything.

Joshua the Mentor
Joshua 4 (Crossing over)
Remembering the Lord and what He has done for Israel.
Because the generation that experienced God's miracle firsthand need no second reminder about God's hand and fear Him, but the generationS to come needed that. Hence God's command to Joshua to place the 12 stones together as a reminder to the descendents of Israel. God did not just deliver them once, but twice!
V14: That day the Lord exalted Joshua in the sigh of all Israel; and the revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses.
God kept His deal with Joshua. God had set Joshua up to be exalted before Israel, but God Himself deserved all the praise and glory for His deliverance. Israel needed that reminder and for its generations that will come after.
Application: How have we been testifying of His goodness and faithfulness? What "12 stones" can we set up in our lives to be reminded of His love and mercy?
