First Day Fears : Forgetting Something - Isaiah 44:21-22

It's easy to forget a lot of things. In the mess of life, we often lose sight of and forget the implications and truths that come with God's promises. We see difficulty and hardship in front of us, we go through tough stuff, and when that happens, we can sometimes forget that we are God's children and we are confident in his promises. God calls us to remember. Throughout the Bible, 'remember' is the echoing command of God to his people, because it reminds us of who he has been, and who he will continue to be for us. We remember that we are called to be God's children, that we are redeemed and saved by the Gospel, that we are forgiven, and that we have the promise of eternal life, with Jesus, forever. We also remember that we are called to live as his servants as we share the truth of the Gospel and live as a follower of Jesus.
