A devotional from Paul Tripp with so many reminders of God’s faithfulness and presence in the nitty gritty of life.
Dear Lord,
Let me not forget
the lavish blessings
that have defined my life.
Let me not forget
the new mercies
that greet me every day.
Let me not forget
that whatever I am facing
I never face it alone.
Let me not forget
your incredible patience
and your long-suffering love.
Let me not forget
your strength that meets me
in every moment of weakness.
Let me not forget
your constant provision
and vigilant protection.
Let me not forget
the forgiving grace
that covers all my sins.
Let me not forget
my inclusion in your kingdom
of righteousness and love.
Let me not forget
the wisdom and guidance
of your righteous commandments.
Let me not forget the
comforting and convicting
ministry of your Spirit.
Let me not forget
the glory of your creation
and how it reminds me of you.
Let me not forget
that my story has been included in
your great story of redemption.
Let me not forget
that you have provided
everything I need for life and godliness.
Let me not forget
that no trouble can come my way
that is outside of your rule.
Let me not forget
that your generous grace
should silence my boasting.
Let me not forget
to forsake my glory
for the greater glory of you.
Let me not forget
that you welcome my confession
and never respond with disgust.
Let me not forget
to live every day
in light of the glories to come.
Let me not forget
the majestic gift of the wisdom
of your holy Word.
Let me not forget
the illumining and empowering
presence of your Spirit.
Let me not forget
that your conviction
is a sign of your mercy.
Let me not forget
the gift of your church
with its fellowship and instruction.
Let me not forget
my eternal identity
as a child of God.
Let me not forget
that my sin and suffering
will someday be no more.
Dear Lord,
Let me not forget
the lavish blessings
that have defined my life.
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits
(Psalm 103:2)
God bless,
Paul Tripp
Heather, you and David are in our prayers. I worked with your mother-in-law for many years and also watched David during many of his growing up years in Webster at the Christian school where our children also attended. Your journey resonates with me as I also walk a cancer road…. again. May we both find and revel in the treasures each day holds and cherish them as gifts from our Father.
I remember that beautiful day in the church and the garden 25 years ago. None of us knew what we were in for, but this essay beautifully captures some of what 25 years of ‘for better or for worse’ means. We love you guys and send prayers for your whole family.
I am always eager to read about your perilous journey, and I am always challenged about what I am doing on my journey, unimpeded by uncertainty, ill-health, poverty or other distress. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
I remember that day 25 years ago very well! Dave is definitely one of the good ones! Blessings on you both for health, continued happiness and a whole lot less of the "in sickness" part. Love you!!
I love the way you tell your story! You are still blessed to be able to share it with us !”In sickness and in health” is the promise that you made 25 years ago. Thank God for blessing you with David who honors you and God. Sending congratulations 🎉🎈🍾 your way!!!
Happy 25th to a beautiful couple! I had to chuckle a bit over your anniversary plans, thinking back to our 40th plans in 2020. They ranged from a trip to Italy or Greece, to an Alaskan cruise, to finally dinner at home out on the deck with a fire in the fire pit! But the love is what counts after 25 years or 40 years, and being there for each other no matter what! Much love to you both and I’m covering you with prayers for as many more years together as possible. 🎉❤️🥂
25 years! Congratulations! I remember the day like it was yesterday. Well, maybe last week. Obviously, I wish you guys were in Australia. But knowing that you are still loving each other and working through this together, well, I had no doubts. But it still cheers me. Praying for you guys. I need some yellow shoes!
