I Remember

Today in my quiet time I have finally gotten around to studying Psalm 77 which Erin had been encouraging me to read through.

"I cried out to God for help; 

I cried out to God to hear me.

When I was in distress, I sought the Lord;

at night I stretched out untiring hands

and my soul refused to be comforted.

I remembered you, O God, and I groaned; 

I mused, and my spirit grew faint. 

You kept my eyes from closing;

I was too troubled to speak.

I thought about the former days,

the years of long ago;

I remembered my songs in the night.

My heart mused and my spirit inquired:

'Will the Lord reject forever?

Will he never show his favor again?

Has his unfailing love vanished forever?

Has his promise failed for all time?

Has God forgotten to be merciful?

Has he in anger withheld his compassion?'

Then I thought, 'To this I will appeal:

the years of the right hand of the Most High.'

I will remember the deeds of the LORD;

yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. 

I will meditate on all your works

and consider all your mighty deeds."

Psalms 77:1-12

So from this I made my own "I Remember" List. One that when satan was attacking and life was taking its toll that I could look and remember what God has done in my life that makes me know that God DOES keep His promises and He is PROVEN FAITHFUL.

I Remember...

When God worked in my Dad's life and transformed him.
When God was faithful in directing the path of what college to attend.

When God provided Bellino so that I could have a believer in my core group in high school. 

When God brought me Erin when I needed her the most.

When God provided for me with Calculus I and other school work.

When God taught me about His righteousness.

When God was there as my friend when my best friend deserted me.

When God was there as my comfort and rock when my heart was broken. 

When God blessed and provided me with an amazing co-PL in Lauren Face.

When God brought me not 1 but 2 disciples in Hannah and Katie.

When God directed in my path in transferring to MPH.

When God worked in Scott's life and began a transformation there. 

When God used me in Megan's life and has answered prayers there. 

When God has blessed me with a new found friendship in my sister Leah.

When God finally got through to me in how to treat my Mom.

When God provided me with the insight to love my brother Heath. 

When God calmed my fears about leading bible study and discipleship.

When God provided and directed my summer plans. 

Sometimes it amazes me that I could ever forget all that God has done in my life. At the same time it makes me a thankful person that God remembers me and loves me. That He pursues me and wants to have a relationship with me. That he DELIGHTS in me and finds me beautiful. That He is always there when I need to talk or get advise. I choose to remember what God has done in my life and to cling to the promises that he has made.
