Did you ever forget what God forgets? What I mean is, He forgets our wrongdoings and gives us grace, mercy and forgiveness. When we forget what He has done for us, we're gradually sliding into forgetfullness of Him altogether.

What you will hear in this episode is the answers of 8th Graders who share their habits of maintaining an active relationship with God. They will tell you how they don't forget God.

Forgetting God happens gradually. The symptoms of a cold appear gradually - first a sniffle and then a cough until finally you've got aches and pains al over your body. Leaves on trees in the autumn don't all fall at once. Beware slow changes in your relatyionship with God. Listen to the wisdom of 8th Graders.

Our target Bible vereses for today are these:

Psalm 78:7 NLT "So each generation should set its hope anew on God, not forgetting his glorious miracles and obeying his commands."

Job 8:8-19 The Message "Put the question to our ancestors, study what they learned from their ancestors. For we're newcomers at this, with a lot to learn, and not too long to learn it. So why not let the ancients teach you, tell you what's what, instruct you in what they knew from experience? Can mighty pine trees grow tall without soil? Can luscious tomatoes flourish without water? Blossoming flowers look beautiful before they're cut or picked, but without soil or water they wither more quickly than grass. That's what happens to all who forget God— all their hopes come to nothing."
