Honey, where are the matches? Mom, where’s the flashlight? Help! Where’s the extra toilet paper? These are questions that invoke a different answer audibly than the one that remains in my head! (Duh? Where have we always kept that? How long have we been married? How many times do I have to remind you of the same thing? Have you even looked where I told you to look last week? Do you have your eyes open? Are you kidding me?)
Without the same sarcastic tone that often accompanies my thoughts, I find myself wondering if God says some of the same things to me when I fail to remember what He’s already told me. (Trust me, child. Don’t you remember I already forgave you for that–I don’t even remember it. Read my Word–the same verses I showed you two days ago! )
Today He lovingly reminded me of something He has shown me over and over again–even in the last week. When will I learn?
Are you looking for anything and forgetting you already know where to find it?
