Genesis 41:9 - Remember when...

Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I am reminded of my shortcomings.

It had been two long years since Joseph had interpreted the cupbearers dream. Pharaoh's dreams reminded him of Joseph. Sometimes we remember things from our past just at the right time. God may be using this memory for a purpose. Maybe it will be an opportunity to help someone. Maybe it is a cautionary tale to avoid making a similar mistake. Maybe it is a memory meant to give us strength in a difficult time. God can use anything to his purpose, even our memory.

Lord, thank you for using every part of us to your glory. Please help us to know when to pay attention to the memories you remind us of and know how to use those memories. Amen.
