# 19 MEMORIES

Sometimes God will put little reminders in our brains just to remind us of good experiences we’ve had and to remind us that He still loves us and cares about the little things.  Sometimes we miss them because we get busy and they may not jump out and smack us on the head.  God did that for me just the other day during an MRI.  The technician asked me what kind of music I wanted to listen to. Those machines tend to be quite loud, anyway I told him contemporary Christian would be wonderful. During most of the test I couldn’t even hear the music for the noise of the machine. Just about the time the machine wound down and got quiet a song came on talking about Jesus’ name being power. It just happened to be the exact song, that was in the repertoire of a singing group from Baptist Bible College, with whom I traveled. The group was an all-girls group called “Commissioned”. We have a kind of inside joke about that song and still when we get together and talk about it someone will say, “remember the day when Debbie did . . .”  For those of you who do not know what I’m talking about.  Sorry, inside joke. However, for those on the group and for me during that moment in the MRI machine it was a wonderful memory of a wonderful life and time spent with great friends.  And the following Sunday, during church, we sang the chorus to “Praise You”.  Another song we had in our repertoire.  Another great memory.
