Remember to Remember

An Elephant never forgets. This is true, but unfortunately I do.

I forget what God has forgiven
I forget the life I had before Jesus changed me
I forget who I was when I was far from God
I forget where my focus should be

I was worshipping God yesterday when I realized that I had forgotten my focus. When I devote my time to God my focus becomes clear again. I forgot to remember.

I remember that I was going to commit suicide
I remember that I was depressed and sick
I remember that Jesus changed my life
I remember what it was to have hope
I remember God's grace and mercy changing me

Yet I still forget these things and my focus strays from where God has me. When I re-adjust my focus to the greatness and awesomeness of God then my heart starts to worship God with new enthusiasm. I am renergized. I love God more when I give Him my focus.
