First, A serious attention to the person and consideration of the thing which he formerly seemed to slight, or lightly to pass by. We also remember by minding and thinking upon what is present, as well as by recalling what is past.

Secondly, To remember, notes a speedy supply of our wants, or actual deliverance out of dangers. God remembers us when he favours us, he remembers us, when he pities us, he remembers us, when he relieves us, Who remembered us in our low estate, Psal 136.23. that is, who brought us out of our low estate. The needy shall not alway be forgotten ⟨p. 501⟩(Psal. 9.18.) not alway, no nor at any time, the Lord doth not at all forget any, much less such needy ones, as that Scripture intends. The meaning is, they shall not alway be undelivered, their estate shall not lie for ever unconsidered, and their cry unattended to. God will not deal with them, nor suffer others to deal with them, as if he had forgotten them. Hannah was long under that affliction of barrenness, and when the Lord gave her conception, it is said, He remembered Hannah (1 Sam. 1.19.) his thoughts were ever upon her, and upon her petition, but when he granted her petition, then he remembered her indeed. As we then remember God, when we obey his commands: so God remembers us then, when he fulfils our requests. Remember, I beseech thee.
