Psalm 143:5
I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Thy works; I muse on the work of Thy hands.

Most of you must have seen the movie, “Bourne Ultimatum”. In the movie, the main character suffered severe amnesia and had to work against time and assassins who want him dead. He takes off on a search to find out who he is and why he is being hunted.
He then came to realize that he himself is a trained assassin. He came to understand this when he finally reached the place where he was first “converted”. In fact, he volunteered himself to the job! As soon as he realized this, he knew that he only has himself to blame for what has happened in his life.
In one instance in our life, we have come to know God or have been called to join His family. However, due to life problems, busyness at work, or wordly attachments, we experienced amnesia of the heart and forgotten Him. We struggled to come out and even blame Him for all those bad things happening to us.
Yet, if we only come back to Him and re-accept Him as our Lord and Savior, we would realize that we only have ourselves to blame.
Almighty Father, help me remember Your faithfulness throughout my life. Help me see how You have loved me, redeemed me, forgiven me, and given me new and eternal life. Help me realize how You have brought me through past struggles, provided for my needs, woke me up this morning, and how You continue to cover me with Your love.
Let us pray +
Oh Lord, bless us—each and all—to always remember You with love, to direct our hearts and lives in fulfilling of Your holy will, that You—the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit—would make our hearts and spirit Your abode, now and always. Amen +
Oh Lord, remember me when You come in Your kingdom.
