When my life was fainting away,
I remembered the Lord
This does not say, "the Lord remembered me," because God never forgets us. But we often deny, turn away from, and ignore God. Jonah was running from God. He forgot God is all-powerful, all-knowing, loving and good. He needed to remember God.
In my sin, in my disobedience, I need to remember God.
Remember He is gracious and forgiving.
Remember He knows best and loves most.
Remember He will never leave me alone.
Remember He is Lord and Savior and deserves my obedience and worship.
Remember He is protecting and disciplining me.
And God was right there waiting, listening.
And my prayer came to you,
Into your holy temple.
Jonah 2:7
