Our life will pass before our eyes. We experience its pleasures and pains, longings and achievements, loves and hates. CheapTiffany Sale But we will find we have forgotten something which is not so important when we get older. As we all know, our experiences will shaped us. Where does it start to influence us? Record your life stories, so your family and you can benefit from your story. 

As we get older, some of us are just accumulating a bigger and bigger pile of undigested experiences. I love the African proverb that says "When an old person dies, it is as if a whole library burned down." In our busy life style, we often don't take time to stop and reflect on our life stories and how they have made us who we are.

Our life stories are significant and there is power in recording them. One of the amazing gifts that God has given us is the gift of memory, but He knew that it would not be an easy task to remember well the significant things that happen in our lives. Cheap Tiffany Necklace After all, we don't exactly hear a trumpet sound right before a meaningful event occurs.  It just happens.

In Numbers 6, after the Israelites had crossed the Jordan River, God told them to go back into the dried up river bed and collect twelve large stones -- one for each of the tribes. Then He said to pile up those stones to make a memorial so that it would be a sign for them throughout the years. When their children asked them what the stones were for, they would tell them that it was because the Lord had cut off the water of the Jordan to enable them to cross over. The stones were physical things to help them remember.  Light bulb moment! We need a physical thing to help us remember significant happenings.

If you like this idea but don't know where to start, start with one story. Write it down. Discover the lesson in it. Then share it with someone. Tiffany Bangle Bracelets If there was any doubt in your mind to the value of doing this, that doubt will be cleared up.

This is not a journey for the squeamish, but those with the courage to walk this road will be wonderfully rewarded. These rewards will radiate out, from you, to your family, to your entire society.
