Wonderful reflection. We need reminders or we will forget just how much and in how many ways God has been with us. This is one reason I appreciate churches that remember the cross in the bread and wine each week- the cross is the greatest expression of God’s love and commitment to us.
I agree that somehow it’s harder for us to be closer and thankful to God when things are going well. We are thankful to God today for being with us during our first year in Seattle and for guiding us to a church with good worship, study groups, missions, and strong Christians like you. I pray this next year for you is filled with new opportunities and adventures where you will feel God presence and guidance through good and challenging times.
John Knox Presbyterian Church, about 15 minutes from our home. About 150-200 worship there each week and the church has a good combination of meaningful worship, small groups, mission, classes, and ages/locations.

Amen brother. It’s amazing how easily we forget. Practices to activate our memories are crucial.
