From the beginning we have erected monuments to help us remember the past like this statue of Civil War Admiral David Glasgow Farragut. Saint-Gauden's statue was erected in New York's Madison Square Park in 1881. The above is a replica on the grounds of his home, now a museum in New Hampshire.
God's people are told to look back on what all God has done for them in the past and to remember how He took care of their needs. We do not need to erect a statue to remember. We just need to look around us and see all that God has provided.
