On Forgetting:
Should I forget that learned response to what I see and hear, that reminds me of my brokenness and the sin that lives in me?
Should I forget the ways you backed away when I needed you the most to come to my rescue?
Should I forget the silence that left my heart aching?
Should I forget the Words of life you spoke to me...they are written in ink and in my heart.
Should I forget the name You gave me...You speak it once again.
Should I forget You came to my rescue, redeeming what was stolen, what was lost, I see the riches of grace... Should I forget Your hand of healing on me, I move joints that I couldn't and my heart goes places it couldn't...Should I forget that by Your wounds I am healed, You died to give me a new name, You transformed my death into life and my life into death...
Should I forget...
God please don't let me forget that in my sin and the sin done to me...I am not forgotten.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteYou were the one to link up to five-minute friday right before me. I'm glad I had a few minutes to be able to read this morning. Your final line summed things up so well. Despite our memories and wondering if we should forget certain things, God does not forget us.
Thank you!
Beautiful. The realness of it is what encouraged me today.
