I've been quite irritated over this characteristic of mine, and I've tried many ways to remember as many things as possible. What made me so guilty was that after I read the bible in the morning and came across something I wanted to apply, I would remember it for like two hours, and forget about it after that. And when I review my day at night, I would get so guilty for forgetting God's Words.
But on the train yesterday, I think God told me this:
You are fearfully and wonderfully made. My works are wonderful, you know that full well.
And you know what, maybe this is how I was made. Not saying that I stop putting in effort to remember stuff, but maybe, I forget things so easily that I can always be amazed at the same things I read in the bible. Maybe I have short term memory so that I must always read His Word constantly to remain in awe of Him.
You know, maybe God is up there right now, smiling down at me as I get amazed today at the exact same things He told me yesterday, knowing that I've heard it but I had simply forgotten about it, again.
So, I forget things easily. Irritating habit, but it keeps me linked to Him.
Each day as I love Him more, I'm learning to love myself more too.
