Forgetting God

“I am the Lord your God, who rescued you from your slavery in Egypt.  You have no God but me, for there is no other savior.  I took care of you in the wilderness, in that dry and thirsty land.  But when you had eaten and were satisfied, then you became proud and forgot me”  (Hosea 13:4-6 NLT).

You’ve not forgotten God, have you?

We all heard you crying out for Him in the midst of your valley.

We overheard your sobs as you climbed the mountain in your path.

We were there with you at the altar as you begged Him for help, for relief, for salvation.

And He heard you, didn’t He?

Have you forgotten Him now that things are rosey?  Is church no longer needed now that your situation is calming?  Are Christian friends not as cool to be around, now that the emergency has passed.  The altar, well, has it been used since that need?

You’ve been given a drink in His name.  Your belly is full from His blessings.  The skies above are blue.  The sun’s out.  And you?  Have you forgotten your Savior?
