I am hardly ever at a loss for words. But, this week, I have been late getting out the newsletter simply because I have been unable to write an article to enclose here. Many subjects have run through my head, but nothing has come of any of those subjects. At one time, I thought I had the very article to write, only to completely forget what I had in my mind.

How many times have you started to do something, only to forget what it was you were about to do? Many will say, ?oh, that?s because you?re getting old?, but that?s not always the truth. Many young people are so pressed today, that they are also forgetful. I believe life now days is on the fast track, much faster than it was when I was young. We have so many things on our mind, that it?s hard to keep everything straight; therefore, we forget sometimes.

Tonight, at church, I was asked if I could bring something on Sunday night to our Salad Supper after church, to which I replied, "You?ll have to remind me. I might forget." And, promptly, I was reminded of . . .

And, promptly, I was reminded of the verse that says, "the memory of the just is blessed." So, on that note, I had to say, I will remember! By the power of the Holy Spirit living within me, my memory is such that I will remember.

Proverbs 10:7 The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.
