---REMEMBERING / JESUS IS GOD!

-"I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you." --(PSALM 119:11)

--One difficult part of growing older is the fear of short-term memory loss. But Dr. Benjamin Mast, an expert on Alzheimer's, offers encouragement. He says that patient's brains are often so "well worn" and "habitual" that they can hear an old hymn and sing along to every word. He suggests that spiritual disciplines such as reading Scripture, praying, and singing hymns cause truth to become "embedded" in our brains, ready to be accessed when prompted.

-In Psalm 119 we read how the power of hiding God's words in our heart can strengthen us, teach us obedience, and direct our footsteps (vv. 28,67,133). This in turn gives us hope and understanding. Even when we begin to notice memory slips in ourselves or in the life of a loved one, God's Word, memorized years earlier, is still there, "stored up" or "treasured" in the heart. God's words will continue to speak to us.

Nothing--not even a failing memory--can separate us from His love and care. We have His word on it. ~~
