(Jer 2:32): Jeremiah's portrait is as ludicrous as it is impossible. What woman ever arrived at the wedding saying, "Oh I knew there was something I was supposed to get; a wedding dress?" (8-28-10)
Long before any arrangements are made for the wedding the wedding gown is either purchased or prepared for. It will only be used on this one occasion but is beyond forgetting. Yet the God of the universe who guides every event in the life is forgotten as though He does not exist.
It is the picture of the "spare tire mentality." We get in the car and drive away so many times without even thinking about the spare tire because we do not use it but when it is needed it gets our undivided attention. It is like the fire truck or ambulance that gets in our way on the highway and we wish the think would either hurry up or move over so we could pass. But if our house is the one on fire or we have an emergency we want everybody to get off the road so we can get this thing done!
What a peculiar creature is the human who would never forget the most trivial but never remember the most important things of life!
