FORGETFULNESS

Forgetfulness -- I suppose that's something that none of you even know about!!!  How I wish I didn't -- or do I?  On second thought, I guess it's good to forget some things such as a hateful word someone has spoken to us in a moment of anger, or the unintended slight given us.

On the other hand, though, we don't want to forget the love and kindness of others, or the friendship of friends.  Above all, let's not forget the blessings and benefits that God bestows upon us daily.  The Psalmist David admonishes us in Psalms 103:4,5, "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, Who forgiveth all thine iniquities, Who healeth all thy diseases, Who crowneth thy life with loving kindness."

And what inspired this blog about forgetfulness?  Well, it happened like this.  Before I went on our recent vacation, I had five or six folders here at my computer desk just loaded with ideas for devotionals of all kinds.  But now that I'm home and ready to use them, I can't find them anywhere!  Where, oh, where did I put them?

Yep, there are some things you just don't want to forget!
