Slow learner...short term memory...self-absorbed...in denial...attention deficit...what is it anyway? I just plain forget. Yes, I forget God's faithfulness. How could I?
He asks the same question..." Stand up and state you case against Me...What have I done to make you tired of Me?...Don't you remember?"
The next thing He says is the turn of the dagger in my heart that so desperately needs His surgery..."Remember...when I, the Lord, did everything I could to teach you about My faithfulness." (Micah 6)
Yes, He, the Lord and Savior of my heart and soul, has done and continues to do everything to teach me about His faithfulness: the delicate blossoms of spring, the snow laden peaks of winter, the color palette of fall and the warming rays of the summer sun...the giggle of a baby, the blend of notes of perfect harmony and the trill of the bird outside my window as dawn breaks...new birth followed by new life in a soul that wandered, forgiveness from transgression yet again, the realization that "all things worked together" and the "assurance of things that are hoped for."
Lord, let me not be short sighted...don't let me fail in my memory...keep my attention absorbed with You...may I never deny what You have done...don't let my attention wander!
Great is Your faithfulness!
