Is there anybody here this morning that is forgetful? I have the cure! How often we forget, we make a list to go the grocery store, put post it notes everywhere, calendars, palm pilots, phones, Ipads, computers, things that send reminders, etc. We don’t mean to forget, we get unfocused, distracted, move on to something else bigger and better, we just don’t care, grow apathetic. We learn something and forget it (things from school days). We make a list of commitments. We make a promise to the Lord, learn something about Him......
