God Remembers!

Wednesday’s Scripture Readings:
OT: Hosea 7-8
NT: 1 Peter 3
W&W: Psalm 136

Today’s Reflection:

Today’s Psalm (136) says:
1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever…
23 to the One who remembered us in our low estate. His love endures forever.

As I read that, I was reminded how God has remembered me in my low estate. Because of that, I have confidence with the Psalmist to say “His love endures forever!

In times when the enemy would lie to me, saying I…
  • Was without hope
  • Had no reason for confidence
  • Teetered on the edge of falling
  • Didn’t have a friend who cared
  • Would never find meaningful service again
  • Faced an empty future
God was with me! Yes, in those times of low estate, he remembered me! He loved me!

And even now – though I am low in many ways – his love endures still!

Oh, how I love Jesus!

This Week’s Scripture to Memorize:
1 Peter 5.10-11: And the God of all grace who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
