We tend to forget so easily that we have to be reminded many times. Sometimes we do not remember because other matters are on our mind. God would have us put first things first, and what is more important than the salvation of our souls? After we are saved, do we then forget to thank God for “so great salvation” (Hebrews 2:33How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; (Hebrews 2:3))? Parents often tell their children, “Remember to say, ‘Thank you!’”
