Isaiah 49:13-18 - The (Un)Forgetful God of Heaven

Everyone's experienced a time when someone is naming a list of people, maybe in a community or a group or part of a project or whatever, and they have forgotten your name. You feel a sense of, "ouch, rejected".


We do that sometimes as well. I always fall in the trap of emailing a group of people for a meeting, but I always manage to forget to send it to at least one of the members. Unintentional, of course.

God here however, never forgets about us. We are like children to Him as He is the mother nurturing us. I don't know of any mothers who forget about their children. I heard a true story from a grandmother who had one of her many children adopted by another family. This child never contacted her back. Decades later, she still thinks about how that child (probably in his 50s by that time) is doing, still regretting. We are like that to God.
