Nearly crippled from her own struggles with arthritis, Jennie Hussey was the primary caretaker of her invalid sister for many years. Though she grew up in a many-generations Quaker family, she chose to identify with the Baptists later in life, asking to be baptized so everyone would know that she loved Jesus. The words of this achingly beautiful hymn remind us to never forget what Jesus has done for us.

As we learn more about challenges, today we discussed how challenges can solve problems, and how to determine who you're solving a problem for.

During His final Passover supper with His disciples, Jesus tells them to remember His broken body whenever they eat the Passover bread, and He tells them something they don't yet understand that night -- that the cup of wine represents a new covenant in His blood, and they should remember it every time they drink the cup of Passover wine. Why did Jesus emphasize to remember His sacrifice?

God tells us over and over in His Word to "remember Me." Across the Old Testament and the New, we're reminded repeatedly to not forget the things God has done for us, to remember what He's told us to do, and remember Who He is. Why is this so important? What does it mean to remember?

On the first anniversary of his conversion, which happened to be Pentecost Sunday in 1739, Charles Wesley penned this outstanding hymn. In fact, penning a hymn on his conversion anniversary was something he made a tradition for years afterward. The title is said to come from something Wesley heard his spiritual mentor say. Moravian missionary Peter Bohler was reported to have said "Had I a thousand tongues, I would praise Him with them all!"

Sitting in a prayer meeting one evening, Adalaide Pollard was heavily discouraged. She'd spent years evangelizing, and then preparing to go to the mission field of Africa at age 40. Forced to cancel her voyage to Africa at the last minute when funding fell through, she attended that prayer meeting, unsure of what God had for her future. An elderly woman spoke a prayer aloud, saying "It's all right Lord! It doesn't matter what you bring into our lives. Just have your own way with us." From that simple, straightforward prayer, Adalaide was inspired to pen this hymn, "Have Thine Own Way, Lord."
