Whatever a monument means to each of us, we find throughout the bible that monuments were built to honor God and His goodness, mercy, and favor. Some were simple piles of stone, some were towers and some were temples but all were intended to remind people of our faithful God and to have courage to follow in faith with only a glimpse of what’s to come. Today, there are still monuments all around us, we see them every day… our families, opportunities, health, finances, and one another… we are the monuments of His faithfulness.
