Remember.
Remember. Why?
Because there is potential to FORGET.
Some families make a
huge deal about remembering their personal history. Tales are told and passed
down generation to generation. There are
things that we don't want to forget, and there are things we'd love to be able
to forget.
A sure way NOT to
forget something is to have reminders.
Our phones can give us alarm reminders, our computers the same, we can
write notes and stick them where we'll see them, and even tie a string around
our fingers to jog our memories. We need reminders and often the older we get
the more reminders we need. Then again, some people are naturally forgetful
while others remember lots of things and seldom forget.
Our Creators did not
want us to forget them.
When you don't want
someone to forget you, what do you do?
You give them
reminders.
If you can you visit
them, you talk with them, you make your presence known to them. The surest way
for people to forget you is to not have any contact with them. I'm not saying
everyone will forget you over time without contact, I still remember people from
my childhood. Those people I remember might even remember me, it's possible.
However there are many people we forget through the years too. Some of those
people remember us even when we don't remember them.
If you want someone
to know you how do you accomplish that?
Another person can't
know you if you don't communicate with them. You could live with a person for
years and not know them if you don't communicate with them, if you don't
interact with them. You may thing you know them and they may think they know
you, but in truth we aren't known and do not know without interacting and
communication.
Our Creators, our
Redeemer wants us to remember them and they want to know us.
How we accomplish
this is written in God's word to us.
Do we want God to
know us?
We should.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord,
have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and
in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never
knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Yes, we should want
our Savior to know us.
More on this
tomorrow by the grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
In His amazing love.
Amen.
