You know how some people seem to have selective memory? They don’t remember everything, just the good things they do. This morning I realized that God is the best example of selective memory I’ve ever seen. (Bear with me, I’m not being blasphemous.)
Monday I quoted Psalm 103:12 (NIV) “…as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.” God doesn’t even remember our sins and transgressions. Today I read Hebrews 6:10, “For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown toward His name, in having ministered and still ministering to the saints.” Oh my goodness! He forgets our bad stuff but remembers our good works? This is the selective memory example I was referencing earlier. It’s not blasphemous, it’s “blessingus” (made-up word to fit the occasion).
The weekend is here and you’ve survived. Take time Sunday to worship the God Who so loves us He sent His Son to take our penalty of death; who willingly forgives (AND FORGETS) our sins when we ask, and TOTALLY REMEMBERS our good works. Maybe this week you’ve gone above and beyond in helping others and no one seemed to notice. TAKE HEART, CHILD OF GOD. YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER KNOWS AND REMEMBERS!!!!!!!
