Stone Monuments

This week in our Life Groups, we're discussing the portion of Scripture in Joshua 3-4 where God brings the Israelites into the promised land. When the cross the Jordan River, they are instructed to build a stone monument to memorialize the miraculous crossing of the water.

What stone monuments do you have today to memorialize who God is in your life? When we're used by God in other people's lives, we're stacking eternal stones that have eternal impact on that person(s). The lasting impressions can be memorials to commemorate the power of God in our lives.

What stone monuments do you have to remind you of what God has done in your life? Do you take the time to regularly remember what God has done for you? What stones are you stacking in your life for your children and grandchildren to see?

I'm asking each person in our Life Group to take a polished river stone that I'm providing to them and use a sharpie pen to write one or two words that remind them of what God has done in a special circumstance in their life - a moment, a season or situation when we experienced God in a life-changing way. We're going to take those stones and place them at the altar on Sunday memorializing the wonder of the Lord God Almighty.
