We see your awesome deeds.
We are so impressed we could
join Mary anointing your feet.
Time passes, and we forget…
let your deeds slip from our minds.
Before long our ears begin to itch;
we seek out more congenial teachings.
O God, forgive; teach us to watch ourselves
more closely, lest we forget your awesome deeds.

Selected Verses
Ps. 66:5
Come and see what God has done:
he is awesome in his deeds among mortals.
Deut. 4:9
But take care and watch yourselves closely, so as neither to forget the things that your eyes have seen nor to let them slip from your mind all the days of your life; make them known to your children and your children’s children.
2 Tim. 4:3
For the time is coming when people will not put up with sound doctrine, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires…
John 12:3
Mary took a pound of costly perfume made of pure nard, anointed Jesus’ feet, and wiped them with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
