“Divine Memory”

Isaiah 26: 8b: “We have waited for You eagerly; Your Name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.” What makes God’s Name and memory so special that Isaiah can call it our soul’s desire? His Name refers not just to His ID tag, but to His character, His nature, and His ways. That’s to be longed for! And His memory? Unlike us, God remembers things the way they truly happened, not colored by our need to justify ourselves and make ourselves out to be the hero. On this day before the Feast of the Holy Name, let’s seek to walk like Christ and remember like God!
