He will not forget about us.

"We have no electricity, no water, no drains. But we are still alive. God will not forget about us, he created us. That is what I believe. God wouldn't have created this population just to forget about us" - Coming from a Father of 14, one son who is mentally handicapped and his wife recently passed away. 


And I worry, that God doesn't remember I have a school bill to pay, a job to get to everyday and homework that needs to be done - I worry that God doesn't remember about "my" problems. 

My...problems? Having a roof over my head, food to eat, a family that loves me, a school that supports me? 

I don't see any real - problems- fitting anywhere in between all those - blessings

After hearing this father talk about his reality, it showed me my reality. That I am blessed beyond measures, that I serve an awesome God. Also that I am still alive, and I serve a living God. Living. Not dead, and still doing that which the prophet Joel spoke of. But Do I really want it? 

He hasn't forgotten about us. 
But have we forgotten about him?
