Tonight @MattChandler74 used Ecclesiastes 11:9 - 12:8 as his primary text.
He used the scriptures to show us how we "rejoice" in things that are not eternal: youth, personal pleasures, beauty, health.
Instead we are commanded to "remember your Creator" (http://esv.to/Eccles12.1)
This act of remembering occurs on 3 distinct ways:
Remember who God is
Job 38:1-13 ~
Psalm 147:4 ~
Remember what God has done
Exodus 12:14 ~
Joshua 4:5-7 ~
Remember God's commands - they exist for my joy; they reveal my guilt and my need for a savior
Deuteronomy 6:6-9
Numbers 15:39-40
