The God Who Remembers

The God Who Remembers


The Lord remembers us, and He will surely bless us.
Psalm 115:12 NEW LIVING TRANSLATION


I took one of those “spiritual gift assessment” tests. I scored poorly as an evangelist. If the results of that test were accurate, it explains a lot. I recall two conversations of sharing what I thought was the good news that God is looking to forgive sins. In both cases, the conversation dulled down to irrelevant issues. It was a husband and wife. I spoke with them separately. The husband heard almost nothing I said. So, I figured I would listen, instead of talk. He spent most of his time telling me what was impossible for God to do. His biggest issue was he could not understand how God could bend man-made laws of physics and be everywhere at once.

Separately, his wife’s biggest stumbling block was that it was impossible for God to care about her because, as she put it, “I’m just little old me.” Both were willing to not trust and not believe God over an inability to accept that God is not bound by human laws and perceptions. I wonder what you haven’t trusted God with because you don’t think He can do it?

I can’t begin to stress the fact that God knows and remembers you. You are a specific design, how could He forget his creation? He even remembers us even when we don’t believe in him.
