I thank my God upon every remembrance of you. Phil. 1:3
Use every remembrance of anyone who loves our Lord as a reminder to look up and thank Him.
When the thought of such a one floats through the mind, don’t let it merely float.
Definitely thank God for that one, and ask for anything known to be needed.
If nothing is known, “Do Thou for him” covers all.
There is a good deal about remembering in the Bible, and a good deal about reminders of different kinds.
Some of these reminders are like flashes for quickness; others bring a thing gradually to our minds, as the cock crowing caused Peter to “remember gradually” the words of his Lord (Luke 22:61).
The Spirit of God is ready, in His loving way, to bring anyone to mind who needs the help of prayer.
If only we are careful not to smother and ignore His soft, reminding whispers, they will come more and more.

This devotion from Amy Carmichael made me cry today.
God is so good and faithful to us always.
I desire for my heart to be like His in everything.
Not take one day for granted.
Ears to hear, eyes to see.
