SOMETIMES I WONDER HAS GOD FORGOTTEN ME.....IN MY CURRENT SITUATION...IN MY HOPES ..IN MY DREAMS....I got out of the car..heading into publix ,Shanna had shut my door and all the locks had been pushed down leaving our 2 year old belted in the back seat of a boiling Caprice Classic. Now my baby was groing hysterical...looking at her mom and dad through the glass...I had to step away for a moment to get perspective and gain composure. The first repsonse was to break the window...cause when your baby looks at you in the eye and wonders why dont you help[ me..as a father youy will move heaven and earth to help..and i was read to move some earth through the heavens..i was gonna chuck a huge rock through the window..no..no..bad idea. Call the fire dept. So i had to step away to deal with Shanna and make the call. But in Naomi's mind..I must have forgotten about her...but she was never out of my gaze and her well being dictated my every action and thought. I think we are like that with God sometimes..... we tend to believe God Has forgotten me...or i deserve to be where i am..or he really doesnt care! Look at this, God says ...in Psalm 121.3 he who watches over you will not slumber. VS7 He will watch over your coming and going,both now..and forevermore. Friend, God has not forgotten you....He knows right now, exactly where you are..he is watching every step of your path...he knows and understands your weakness,what your going through...he is concerned about everything that concerns you.He knows you by name...he has numbered the vey hairs on your head....he knows all your thoughts, he knows all your fears, he knows all the things you worry about in your future he knows your deepest desires that have not been met....he knows the promises you hold onto..the dreams you once had that failed to come true..the people that have hurt you and left you in the dust,,,the pain in the inner most places of your heart that you hide so well ..maybe you have seemed to forgotten all that..and transfered it into worry, bad habits...and strange behavior...but he has not forgotten a thing....ISAIAH 49.11 THE LORD HAS FORSAKEN ME..THE LORD HAS FORGOTTEN ME VS 15, CAN A WOMAN FORGET HER NURSING CHILD,AND NOT HAVE COMPASSION ON THE SON OF HER WOMB? SURELY THEY MAY FORGET, YET I WILL NOT FORGET YOU. But sometimes we blow our stuff out of porportion...compared to the needs of others and compared to what he went through.HE REALLY PROVED HE CARES ABOUT YOU...IN THE WAY HE CAME FOR YOU..LEAVING HIS THRONE ...IN THE WAY HE LIVED FOR YOU...PERFECTLY KEEPING ALL THE COMMANDS YOU AND I COULDNT. THE WAY HE DIED FOR YOU...LOVINGLY GIVING IT ALL ON THE CROSS SO YOU WOULDNT BE ASAHMED IN HEAVEN. THE WAY HE ROSE FOR YOU SO YOU COULD HAVE HOPE THAT YOU WOULD LIVE FOREVER. IS 49.16 SEE I HAVE INSCRIBED YOU ON THE PALMS OF MY HANDS. SO what he is saying is where the holes are ...your name is written there....SO..HOW COULD HE FORGET...YOU..THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF HIS MISSION TO EARTH. He didnt......take heart he knows and he is working everything out for our good...we just need to have more________________. What did you put in the blank??? How could God ever forget you..the crowning achievment of all his creation...something he is so proud of it... bears his very image. PEACE
