Remember . . .

(Thomas Wilcox, "Honey Out of the Rock")

"Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and the LORD your God redeemed you from there!" Deuteronomy 24:18

Remember . . .
  your sins — and Christ's pardoning;
  your deserts — and Christ's merits;
  your weakness — and Christ's strength;
  your pride — and Christ's humility;
  your many infirmities — and Christ's restorings;
  your guilt — and Christ's new applications of His blood;
  your failings — and Christ's assistance;
  your needs — and Christ's fullness;
  your temptations — and Christ's tenderness;
  your vileness — and Christ's righteousness!

"Remember how the LORD your God led you through the wilderness for these forty years." Deuteronomy 8:2
