When Hannah was in kindergarten, we have a morning ritual. When the school bell rang, she would come to me and I would tidy her up, correct her shirt, dry her perspiration and say a little prayer for her before saying good-bye.

One morning, I was as usual waiting outside the school fence, observing her in the school playground. When the bell rang, I saw her disappear into her classroom together with the rest of the children.

As I looked for her face in the shadows of the classroom, I wondered to myself, ‘Has she forgotten ?’

Then she appeared, and bounded across the school playground to the school gate to my waiting arms.

‘Ah, she remembered’, I smiled.

“Some people have got out of the habit of meeting for worship, but we must not do that.” Hebrews 10:25 CEV.

We must not do that, because our Father waits for us and looks to see whether we have forgotten our ritual of meeting with Him.
