## Title: What Have You Done For Me Lately?
## Scripture:
(Exodus 8:30-32) “So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to the Lord, and the Lord did as Moses asked—he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not one remained! But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also and did not release the people.” (NET)
## Observation:
When my girls were little, it was sometimes frustrating as a dad how quickly they would forget things. We would take a day and have so much fun. We would go to the park, go out to eat, and play games late into the night. However, if we did not do the same thing the next day, they would say they never get to do anything fun. It would be frustrating that their appreciation seemed to reset every evening. Then, one day I noticed myself doing the exact same thing to the Lord. I would experience the greatness of God one day and wake up the next day wondering why God only blessed others. We can see the same thing happening to Pharaoh in this passage. When God’s greatness was being displayed in front of him, Pharaoh recognized who God was. However, as soon as the moment had passed, he questioned God’s greatness. May it never be said of us. May we always remember God’s greatness and realize God does not have to prove Himself to us over and over again.
## Application:
Do you sometimes forget God’s goodness from day to day? List five things God has done within the past week that you need to be sure not to forget.
## Prayer:
Thank You, Jesus, for being patient with us.
