DILIGENT IN YOUR BUSINESS?
May 5, 2023SING PRAISES TO OUR KING
May 7, 2023There is a saying, “Out of sight, out of mind.” This is generally true in human relationships. When we don’t see a person on a regular basis, and normal communication ceases, it is inevitable, that we forget the person.
There are, at other times, when someone works hard and gives their best, yet, when the work is done, the person is either intentionally side-tracked, or is forgotten, since there is no more any news for the person. Strange as it may seem, life in the real world is hard and harsh, and it can crush someone who is sensitive and soft natured. Life goes on, regardless of crushed people, and shattered hearts.
The Word of God records in Ecclesiastes 9:14-15, something that is not abnormal in the world – “14 There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it: 15 Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.”
The poor man, with his wisdom helped the city and saves it from destruction. After he delivers it from destruction, yet, no man remembered that same poor man. Sounds familiar? The Word of God encourages us not to lose heart. Read on…
Human beings have a tendency to forget the person, and the services he renders. However, God never forgets us, nor forsakes us…
“6 Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” – Deuteronomy 31:6
The LORD Knows His People…
“7 The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him.” – Nahum 1:7
The LORD has a ‘Book of Remembrance’ …
“16 Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, And the LORD listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him, For those who fear the LORD, And who meditate on His name.” – Malachi 3:16
Our Names are Written in Heaven…
“20…rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” – Luke 10:20
Man may forget all that we have done. However, the LORD will never forget, in fact, He rewards us in His time. So, let us not lose heart because of man, but continue to walk the path of righteousness for the LORD’s sake, and His glory.
