Psalm 22:27 (Psalm 22)
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you.
REMEMBER! This is a theme you will hear about throughout this week. Some will remember the fear they felt on 9/11. Some will remember the confusion of 9/11. Some will be bitter. Some still ask “why?”
It is interesting how fast we can forget God and how fast we will run to God in time of crisis. It is said that the Sunday following 9/11 saw the highest attendance in church in generations. It seems that it is easy to forget God in the good times, when everything is going our way. Then we want God to rescue us in the midst of our trials. This is much like what Moses must have felt like when he was leading Israel out of Egypt. When the manna fell and the water flowed everything was great. Then they even started to complain about the manna. How about you? Do you complain about the manna? The other day on facebook someone posted, “what if you woke up today with only the things you thanked God for yesterday?” Guilty. I am guilty of forgetting often that God provided it ALL.
As you REMEMBER this week remember not only the confusion, fear, and doubt. REMEMBER we have a Savior that is with us in the storm and is ready to calm your fears. Don’t forget to worship him.
