Remember not

The Former Things

16 Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters, 17 who brings forth chariot and horse, army and warrior;
they lie down, they cannot rise, they are extinguished, quenched like a wick: 18 “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. 19 Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. 20 The wild beasts will honor me, the jackals and the ostriches, for I give water in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my chosen people, 21     the people whom I formed for myself that they might declare my praise.

Isaiah 43:16-21 ESV

But How Can I Forget God’s Faithfulness?

  • ChatGPT> The invitation isn’t to erase yesterday’s faithfulness. It’s to let yesterday’s faithfulness become the reason you trust Him for today’s unexpected work.

Joshua’s Exhortation

Go in and take possession of your inheritance.

What is the call? Why has he called us and saved us?

…who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began…

2 Timothy 1:3-14

My Children

My own children, I have 5 of them. They are in various states of salvation. I’m not “satisfied” nor complacent.

Jamie has declared he is now an atheist. He always does so much when he speaks of his having left Ria. It makes me wonder if she spoke curses over him which he unknowingly took internally. My prayer is that God will give me an opportunity to speak truth into his life. In the meantime I see him engaging in a conversation in his heart. God is there, like Jesus on the road to Emmaus. Luke 24:13-35
