“Do not forget the good things the Lord has done for you...”
The writer of Hebrews puts a great emphasis on remembering what God has done. He practically goes through the entire history of Israel, urging his readers to learn from the mistakes of those people and not emulate their hardness of heart. “History repeats itself” is an old maxim, and I think the primary reason for this is that we do forget...we don’t remember, and it causes us to repeat the mistakes of past generations. Or, even worse, our memories are so short we repeat our own mistakes. But even worse than repeating our mistakes is when we forget the goodness of God.

For those of you who haven’t heard the news, I just released my second book last week!
When you’re an author, there’s nothing more exciting than handing the book you’ve poured your heart and soul into to the general public. It’s terrifying, too, but that thrilling kind of terror that makes you almost giddy. At least, that’s me. From Faith to Faith is a story told from the perspective of a seventeen-year-old Fundamentalist Mormon girl named Lynlee. When her older half-sister more or less kidnaps young Lynlee in an attempt to escape from an abusive leader, Lynlee is stunned by the modern, 21st-century world. Finding herself in the home of her brother, who has become a Christian, Lynlee is faced with with a war of truth and lies. |
