Song of My Heart – Week 3 (11-23-25)

THE SONG OF MY HEART
Remembering God’s Ḥesed
November 23, 2025

All of us have someone in our story who loved us when we didn’t deserve it…

THE ANCHOR: Hesed

Exodus 34:6-7
’The LORD, the LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in ḥesed and faithfulness.

ḥesed – Loyal love. Covenant love.
The love that refuses to quit, even when it breaks its heart to stay.

Psalm 103:8
“The LORD, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in ḥesed.”

Genesis 32:10
I am unworthy of all the hesed and faithfulness you have shown your servant.

Psalm 136
“His ḥesed endures forever”

THE HEARTBEAT: Remember

Psalm 103:2
“Bless the LORD, O my soul and forget not His benefits.”

zakar = “bring to mind in order to act”

When God remembers, He acts.
When we remember, we worship.

DON’T FORGET
Deut. 8:10–18 summarized
Sabbath
Tassels on garments —> spiritual sticky notes

Forgetfulness is the enemy of worship.

Memorization vs Remembering
Controlled Input + Repetition = Memorization
Controlled Input + Intentional Reflection = Remembering

Memorization fills your head
Remembering fills your heart

Input overload produces spiritual amnesia.

Forgetfulness is the enemy of worship.
Remembering is the soil of gratitude.

David remembers God’s:

  • Goodness
  • Forgiveness
  • Compassion
  • Mercy
  • Redemption
