Philosopher George Santayana said, “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” But what happens when the remembered past is painful? The pains of yesterday have a way of claiming power today. Or as William Faulkner once said, “The past isn’t dead. It’s not even past.” Memory is a powerful thing; it is also a risky thing. As Rev. Tom Are preaches, sometimes we need to learn from the God who promises, “I will not remember your sins.” Our scripture readings are Isaiah 43:22-25 and selected portions of Genesis 44.
