DAILY?READINGS: Deut. 14:22-15:23; Song of Sol. 5:2-6:9; Luke 10:25-42
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God. Deuteronomy 8:18
And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons forever. Exodus 12:24
Israel was to remember what the Lord had done for them. But it is easy to forget and so they had a sequence of yearly feasts to aid them in recalling God’s goodness to them. We have only one remembrance feast to keep—the Lord’s Supper. Do we do it with joy? Do we think on the glorious salvation He has provided? But above all, do we remember Him: His beauty, purity, and love? Is it vitally important for us to be at the Lord’s Supper each Sunday! —M. Robins
Lord we would not forget the pain, the blood-like sweat, the shameful tree,
The wrath Thy soul did once sustain, from sin and death to set us free. —James G. Deck
