“I thank my God every time I remember you.” (Philippians 1:3)
A memory is a record of an event stored for future use. The way you live your life and how you relate with people leaves a memory of yourself in their minds. What kind of memory are you leaving in the minds of people about you?
Paul wrote the letter to the Christians in Philippi whilst he was in prison in Rome. The Philippians organized support for him which they delivered through Epaphroditus.
Among other things, Paul wrote to express his gratitude to the church. Obviously, the church had been of great help to him. So, he starts his letter with this note:
“I thank my God every time I remember you.” (Philippians 1:3)
What a sobering address! What a depth of gratitude! There are some people whose impact in your life you can hardly forget. For such people, you always thank God when you remember them. It’s a memory of praise forever imprinted; indelible.
If you also live your life in the betterment, empowerment, and support of others you shall leave a memory of praise in their lives. Life becomes more meaningful when we live for the benefit of others.
Remain inspired!
