Have you ever been accidentally left behind by your family somewhere far from home?  It is just about the loneliest feeling on earth.  To be forgotten by our family or loved ones is frightening and overwhelming, but it is utterly devastating to feel forgotten by God.

We all struggle with this feeling from time to time.  Even David, who showed such faith and courage to take on the giant, Goliath, felt abandoned by God from time to time.   In Psalm 13, he even prayed:

How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever?

    How long will you hide your face from me?

How long must I take counsel in my soul

    and have sorrow in my heart all the day?

 

This week we continue our conversations from the Book of Beginnings by discussing  Genesis 8, which begins “And God remembered Noah…”  What about us?  Does God remember us?  How do we know?  Come and join us as we consider these questions from the ancient story of Noah and the Ark.

Join us this week in worship at Pottsville Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church as we continue the story of Noah and the Ark. Worship begins at 10:45 am.  For directions click here. We look forward to seeing you.
