Notes
: We often have battles to face. Sometimes it's battles we can't win on our own. It's important to remember or “Ebenezer” the times when God clearly comes through and saves us and gives us victory. It helps remind our future selves of God’s Faithfulness. It also reminds us that we need him! Set up an Ebenezer and do it however you want. It will serve not only you but those around you reminding everyone of God's goodness and faithfulness always.
