Hoesa 7

but they do not realize
    that I remember all their evil deeds.
Their sins engulf them;
    they are always before me.


Its always a bit sobering to be reminded He sees everything I do and knows all that I think and his memory is pretty good too.  

I read this and think how dumb is Israel, then I pull the plank out of my eye.  I'm not much better in many ways.

I am more than fortunate He forgives me and that Jesus wiped the slate clean for me.

  1. 1 whenever I would heal Israel,
    the sins of Ephraim are exposed
    and the crimes of Samaria revealed.

    you looked at verse 2. I looked at verse 1.
    As I read it I was reminded of how many times God saved Israel from some oppresor, or slavery, or hunger......and then they quickly turn to an evil lifestyle. He gives us the garden of eden, and we make our own path.
