    Let’s look at Paul and Silas. These two men were beaten, chained, and thrown into prison—not for doing wrong, but for doing right. Yet, in the darkest moment of their lives, they didn’t complain. They didn’t wallow in self-pity. They worshiped.

    It is a good thing for Christians to “remember” what they were. No ability of the mind can be better employed to produce humility, penitence, gratitude, and love, than the memory. It is good for us to recall our former sins.
