Read Isaiah 49:15-26 15 “Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you.
16 See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are continually before Me.
As human us we are, we sometimes feel forgotten and see life as hopeless forgotten the fact that God who is the anchor for our life holds us closer than we can imagine and He hears and remembers us.
Think about Joseph who was betrayed by his own brothers, sold into slavery, accused by Potiphar's wife and was sent to prison for 13 years for an offense he did not commit. This was a who had a dream to become a king and was sent to prison for an offense he did not commit but one thing was certain about Joseph, he stayed in faith and knew that God had not forgotten about him and that his story will end in victory. He was joined in the prison by two officers of Pharaoh, the chief butler and the chief baker.
These officers had a dream and Joseph was there to interpret the dream for both officers, but one(chief butler) ended up been restored to his butler-ship position again but the chief baker was hanged! To make matters worse for him, the chief butler forgot about Joseph but Joseph still kept the faith and was hopeful about his destiny.
Sometimes in life, the people who owes us the most might forget about us but I encourage you first to keep the faith and not despair because His still remembers you and just like Joseph who was made the second in command on the land of Egypt.
Are you under pressure to deliver at work? God knows how you feel. Do people expect and take more from you than they give? God understands and He knows what that’s like. Your colleagues won’t listen? Believe me, God knows how you feel and is always there and ever prepared to listen to us. You’re precious to Him. God hears our cry and values us that He sent His only son on earth to die for our sins. When you struggle, He listens. When you yearn, He responds. When you question, He hears and answers. He loves you. He understands you and He has promised to end our story with smiles and enable us become victorious in all our endeavor in life.
People may forget about you but God who has inscribed your name on His palm still remembers you! People may do you wrong but God will make them pay for double the trouble they caused you, people may betray you but you have a Friend who sticks closer than a brother and hears and sees those beauty in your tears and will embrace you with His love that cast-out fear for He is with you even in the valley and has not forgotten about you!
God remembers you and our God who is compassionate and kind will uplift you us you keep the faith and hide yourself in His bosom and at the right time those dreams God destined for you will be fulfilled.
