Are We Forgotten?

19 June

I was listening to Ps Eugene’s Sunday message today as I missed it and was very surprised because the Lord spoke to me while I was in the shower this morning about the Butler and the Baker who was in the King’s palace in Joseph’ time. Joseph interpreted their dreams for them and was forgotten, (of course eventually remembered after a long while) …. But God is a covenant-keeping God. He never leaves us nor does He forsake us. We may, many times feel that we are forgotten by God … or has God forgotten His promises to us? But He has not!
In fact, I was reading the whole book of James today, and in Chapter 5:7 ..Therefore, be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains. You too, be patient, strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near. Do not complain, brethren, against one another, so that you yourselves may not be judged: behold the Judge is standing right at the door. It’s a timely reminder to pray even in the midst of all our ‘suffering’ and ‘pain’. Thank God for His mercy and grace!
