Short Thoughts for Today

Today's passage is found in Hebrews 2:5-8 which states, "For He did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. But one has testified somewhere, saying, 'WHAT IS MAN, THAT THOU REMEMBEREST HIM? OR THE SON OF MAN, THAT THOU ART CONCERNED ABOUT HIM? THOU HAST MADE HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS; THOU HAST CROWNED HIM WITH GLORY AND HONOR, AND HAST APPOINTED HIM OVER THE WORKS OF THY HANDS; THOU HAST PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET". For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him."

Men are quick to forget God or to not acknowledge Him at all. But He has remembered us. Praise God! For a while He has made them a little lower than the angels, stewards if you will, of "the works of His hands". He will not forget us and has promised to never leave or forsake us. Although He sits at the Father's right hand, He will in fact "remember us" once more. He has promised to return for His Church. One day He will call us heavenward and we shall meet Him in the air and so "we shall always be with the Lord".
