Reclaim Memory With Deliberate Practices
- Do set aside a weekly day of rest to strengthen spiritual memory and remembrance of God.
- Do speak aloud, "But you, Lord," when you feel forgotten to reorient your heart toward God.
Forgetting God Is Often Forgetting His Character
- Remembering God often fails not because we disbelieve but because we forget what he is like.
- Self-focused thinking blinds us to God's character and can make us feel abandoned.
Psalm 102: From Despair To Remembering
- Sinclair B. Ferguson uses Psalm 102 as an example of a believer moving from despair to remembrance.
- The psalmist shifts from self-absorption to saying, "but you, Lord," and begins to recover hope.
