Each devotion aligns with your student(s) weekly science lesson putting an emphasis on distinguishing science laws and knowledge from pseudo science or theoretical science. The natural world reveals God’s design in creation while His Word reveals purpose and plan for our lives. Together, they foster wisdom.

What is “Remember These Things”?

Families are encouraged to have a family altar or memory marker. Markers are often placed where they can be seen to remind us of God’s power, provisions, and plans for our lives. We often take the natural world for granted and forget that without all the resources of creation, we would have nothing to meet our physical needs. While we pray for provisions, protection, or guidance, God frequently reveals their presence in the physical world.

In scriptures, God’s people built altars to “remember what God had done” in their lives. They were a physical or visual reminder. In those moments when God intervened in mighty ways; a new altar or marker was constructed. There are so many simple things right in front of us, provided through in His Word, through His creation, and in His daily provisions for our lives that we should also remember to give thanks for the “common things” as well.

“In every thing give thanks: for this is God’s will in Christ Jesus concerning you.” I Thessalonians 5:18 and Ephesians 5:20 (KJV) which says, “giving thanks always for all things unto God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

By “Remembering These Things,” we grow in gratitude with an ability to “give thanks in all things.”
