I have a terrible time remembering anything.  Everyone, including our five year old, writes notes to remind me to do things.  By the way, if we ever talk on Sunday and I say “please email that to me-If you don’t I’ll forget it” …I’m not blowing you off.  I seriously want a reminder note so that I don’t forget what we talked about.  

I’m glad we have a written account of God’s plan for us in the Bible.  I read it not because it’s “magical”, not because it’s my “duty”,  but because I constantly need a reminder of God’s plan for living here on earth.   I need to be reminded that although society and technology have changed over the last 2000 years, God hasn’t. I need to be reminded that there are timeless truths that still can change our lives for the better today…If only we remember them.

Here’s a few really important things I was “reminded” of this morning…

¹³ Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.  Colossians 3:13

⁶ Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.  2 Corinthians 9:6

¹⁷ Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.   James 4:17

But remember that they will have to face God, who will judge everyone, both the living and the dead.   1 Peter 4:5
