DO YOU REMEMBER?

 

DO YOU REMEMBER?

 

Today the apostles

Seem to have FORGOTTEN

Some of

Jesus’ most RECENT MIRACLES

 

How about us?

DO WE REMEMBER?=what God and Jesus

Have done for us

On the PAST?

 

Do we REMEMBER all

The tough situations

He has PULLED us out of BEFORE?

 

“And do you not REMEMBER

When I broke

The five loaves

 

For the five thousand=how many

Wicker baskets

Full of fragments=You picked up?”                                                                                            Mark 8:18-19

 

It is easy

To laugh at the DISCIPLES

As we recall the

Well-known story of Jesus

FEEDING 5,000 people

 

Like Jesus=we too

SHAKE our heads in wonder

 

But when we have

NEW TROUBLES=DO WE REMEMBER?

All the past times

Jesus and God

PULLED us out

Of so many tough situations?

 

It is a classic case of

“WHAT have you done

For me lately?”

 

DO WE REMEMBER=God the Holy

Father=and his Son

SAVING US

So many times in the past?

 

“And so it shall be

Up to us

 

That you may look upon it

AND REMEMBER

All the commandments=of the Lord

And do them”                                                                                                                        Numbers 15:39

 

“REMEMBER his marvelous works

That he has done

 

His wonders

And the judgments

Of his mouth”                                                                                                            Psalm 105:5

 

“All they asked

Was that we should continue

TO REMEMBER=the poor

 

The very thing

I had been eager to do=all along”                                                                                      Galatians 2:10

 

We have all

The EVEIDENCE of God

Helping us=to move forward

 

Yet we wonder

Yet we forget=We don’t

Have the FAITH

We need

 

GOD’S EVIDENCE is piled up

All around us

Baskets of fish

BUCKETS OF MEMORIES

 

DO YOU REMEMBER?

How God has helped you

In the past?

 

“O house of Aaron-

Trust in the Lord

He is OUR HELP=and our shield”                                                                  Psalm 115:10

 

It is TIME

To gather OUR MEMORIES

And plunge boldly

Into the future

 

DO YOU REMEMBER?

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the Name=of our EVER PRESENT

Holy Father God!
