Reminders
Therefore, I will always be ready to remind you of these things, even though you
already know them, and have been established in the truth which is present with you.
I consider it right, as long as I am in this earthly dwelling, to stir you up by way of
reminder, knowing that the laying aside of my earthly dwelling is imminent, as also
our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. And I will also be diligent that at any time
after my departure you will be able to call these things to mind.
2 Peter 1:12-15

Reminders help us keep thoughts fresh in our minds. We tend to forget, not
through deliberate negligence, but through disuse, inactivity.
SOME REMINDERS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the
weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, 'It is more
blessed to give than to receive.'
Acts 20:25
Do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it
is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.
Romans 11:18
That you should remember the words spoken beforehand by the holy prophets and
the commandment of the Lord and Savior spoken by your apostles.
2 Peter 3:2
