Tie a Ribbon 'round Your Little Finger

Remember me with favor, my God. ~Nehemiah 5:19

Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. ~Psalm 25:6

When the waters rise and you've waited long for rescue & you feel God's forgotten, remember... Genesis 8:1: But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth, and the waters receded.

When dust and debris threaten to replace passions, dreams and callings & you feel God's forgotten, rememer... Genesis 9:15: I will remember my covenant between me and you.

When the pitter-patter of little feet is silent & you feel God's forgotten, remember... Genesis 30:22: Then God remembered Rachel; he listened to her and enabled her to conceive.

When fearworrydoubtfaithlessnessanxiety enslave & you feel God's forgotten, remember... Exodus 2:23-25: During that long period...The Israelites groaned in their slavery and cried out, and their cry for help...went up to God. God heard their groaning and he remembered his covenant...and was concerned about them.

When guilt consumes & you fear God will never forget, remember... Isaiah 43:25: I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more. Jeremiah 31:34: for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.

When all hope is lost, remember... Luke 24:6-8: He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you...‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’

When God answers, pulls through, rescues, & redeems, remember... Deuteronomy 8:2: Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness.

When dreams come true and you're thriving in your calling, remember... 1 Chronicles 16:12, 15: Remember the wonders he has done and that He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations.

In all things, remember God is their Rock, that God Most High is our Redeemer. ~Psalm 78:35
