In "Yesterday's Reflections," author Albert F. Schmid invites us
to consider the various holidays that are celebrated throughout the
year. He provides interesting facts about each holiday and includes
the religious origins of them where relevant because many of our
holidays have a religious connection. He also explains important
points about the holidays, such as why Easter is always on a Sunday
and why Thanksgiving is always on the fourth Thursday in
November.
In addition, he includes devotionals on topics ranging from
"Contentment" to "God Is Where Love Is." Each devotional includes
the pertinent Scriptures, a story to illustrate the point being
made, and Schmid's comments. For example, "The Rear View Mirror"
tells the story of Grace, who remembers her father's advice for
driving in the snow: "find a snow plow and follow it." When she
encounters a blizzard, she does this; an hour later, the driver
stops to make certain she is all right, as he had plowed a large
parking lot, was moving on to the next business, and was concerned
when he noticed that she was following him. We often become
comfortable thinking that we can just "follow the snow plow" when
in truth we need to learn to trust God and let Him lead the
way.
"Yesterday's Reflections" is an inspiring collection that
reminds us that we are Christ's ambassadors and that God expects
each of us to live and act as though He is making His appeal
through us. The best sermons are not preached; they are lived.
