GOD DOES THE REMEMBERING

A 91-year-old lady reads the Scriptures regularly, but now her memory is failing her. Friends commented, "So what’s the use of all this reading when you cannot remember what you’ve read." Her answer is always the same. "God has blessed me richly. I eat well and sleep well; I have a roof over my head. I am not concerned about my memory. I just do my reading and God does the remembering."

She relies on God and not her natural ability to bring the Word back. The Lord says to His disciples in John 14:26 that "the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."

God will help us. But we need to know the Word, believe the Word and apply the Word.
