Forget Me Nots 222

When the Lord your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build, houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied, be careful that you do not forget the Lord, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
Deuteronomy 6:10-12

And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, 
“This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
Luke 22:19

"Be careful that you do not forget about the Lord...do this in remembrance of me..."
These words are ringing in my spirit today.
How quick our natural fleshly desires can lead us away…
"all us of like sheep, have gone astray" Isaiah wrote, but our real lives are hidden in Him, He is the Constant.
Fishermen use lures that are shining and glittery,
and likewise our gaze can be averted by shiny and glittery junk.
Creation shouts with the glory of God,
all intended to be reminders of the Uncreated Creator Lover of our Souls.
Everything begins and ends with Him.
Today beloved don't just remember Him-
praise Him, worship Him, adore Him, love Him with all that you are.
He alone is worthy!
