Verse for the Day:
But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his counsel. (Psalm 106:13)

There are days when my memory leaves a lot to be desired. I can walk into a room and not be able to remember what I went there for. I normally go to the store and come out with everything but what I went in there to get. I’ve driven down Highway 150 from Moline to Orion and have no memory of the drive. I packed my tote tag with my notebook, pens, rhyming dictionary, and in progress work and the book I was reading and left it all by the stairs so I wouldn’t miss it when I left, and then I walked out the door without it.

I can easily forget the little mundane day to day things, but I could never forget the wondrous things the Lord has done for me. How could I forget that he paid the penalty on the cross for my sin? How could I forget the grace and mercy that have been lavished on my over the years? How could I forget the times that the only thing that kept me going was the Lord carrying me over the rough places and never letting me go? I know how easy it is to forget the little things, put I pray daily that I will never forget what He means now and forever in my life.

Dear Heavenly Father, keep my mind focused totally on you and the wonder that you bring into my life. Don’t ever let me forget how much you have done now and in the past to keep me from falling, in Jesus name, Amen.
