REMEMBER ME!

Luke 23:39-43 – Devotional

Luke 23:39-43

“One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”

But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.” He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”

Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.“

This Friday we have a special treat for you. Russ Hansen has combined AI and Scripture to produce an original song entitled, “Remember Me!” based on the account of Jesus’ conversation with the thief on the cross. We trust you enjoy this musical inspiration today. Russ would appreciate your feedback at inspiration@thegoodbookcompany.com.

REMEMBER ME
(Inspired by Luke 23:39-43)

The sky grew dark, the crowd grew still,
Three crosses stood on Calvary’s hill.
One mocked in pride, one bowed his head in need,
“Lord, remember me,” was his plea.

Remember me when my hope is gone,
When I am weak and can’t hold on.
By Your grace, through mercy’s plea,
“When You come into your Kingdom, Lord, remember me.”

No time to serve, no life to show,
Only eleventh hour faith in the love You bestow.
I turned to You through pain and loss,
Today you’re with Me upon a cross.

Remember me when my hope is gone,
When I am weak and can’t hold on.
By Your grace, through mercy’s plea,
“When You come into your Kingdom, Lord, remember me.”

When my final breath I breathe,
Your promise still will comfort me.
Though I’m unworthy, yet I believe—
You won’t forget, You’ll remember me.

Remember me, O Lord, remember me,
By Your wounds, You’ve set me free.
When heaven’s gates swing wide for me,
I’ll sing forever—You remembered me.

“I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
In paradise.
“You’ll be with Me in paradise.”

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
