Most people think spiritual drift starts with rebellion. A dramatic decision. A crisis of faith. A moment when someone suddenly walks away from God.

But more often, drift begins with something that feels far less dangerous: Nostalgia.

Remembering the past isn’t wrong. In fact, Scripture repeatedly tells God's people to remember.

• Remember God's faithfulness.

• Remember His provision.

• Remember His miracles.

• Remember His promises.

The problem isn't remembering yesterday. The problem is when we start trying to live there. Because eventually nostalgia can become a substitute for faith.
