But Zion said, "The LORD has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me." Can a mother forget her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she forget, I will never forget you.
God will never forget us. Although we might suffer trials and tribulations, afflictions of body, mind, and heart, He shall never abandon us. He is the perfect Father for us. He knows what we want and gives us exactly what we need. He knows what we can handle and gives us the grace to succeed. He knows what is best for us and He will do everything He can to lead us to our greatest potential as both human beings and Christians. He shall not forsake us, even though we might forsake Him for sins and distractions. He will always treat us with tenderness, even when we are heartless and pay Him little to no heed. He will always be waiting for us to return to Him, not to tell us "I told you so," but to welcome us back home and say, "let us celebrate with a feast, because this son of mine was dead, and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found."
Do we trust God will always be there for us? How can we be there for those whom are in need around us? What can we do to become as tender and loving as God is to us?
O Lord, we will never forget you.
Amen.
