When considering what to remember, Christians have many things to focus on: their election, deliverances, and callings. However, there is one person who deserves our most profound remembrance—Christ. He should be at the center of our spiritual lives, not just an act or event.
Christ’s person is what should be cherished and remembered above all else. Although we cannot remember His physical appearance or the details of His life on earth, His spiritual significance and the essence of His character are what we should focus on.
Even though we weren’t present during His earthly life, we can still remember Him in spirit. The apostle Paul mentioned knowing Christ beyond His physical appearance, emphasizing the importance of spiritual remembrance over physical sight. This perspective allows us to connect with Christ deeply, despite the distance of time.
To remember Christ effectively, we should focus on His actions and teachings. Reflecting on His baptism, His time in the wilderness, and His struggles can help us keep Him at the center of our thoughts. By doing so, we align ourselves with the essence of what He represents.
Let us take time to remember Christ daily. Reflect on His sacrifices, His struggles, and His life, even if we can’t picture His physical form. Through spiritual remembrance, we honor Him and keep His influence active in our lives.
