What a beautiful promise that God has engraved (not written, which can be erased) our names on His palm. Just as engraving something means sealing something permanently, God is committed to His people.
This is an assurance that God cares for us, He watches over us, He loves us and He will not forget us.
He knows us by name – He knows us individually. He creates each of us with so much love and care.
Whatever you are going through right now, He cares for you. He is right there with you.
Happy Valentine’s!
Valentine’s Day is celebrated to remember Saint Valentine, a Christian martyr who showed Christ-like love. He performed Christian marriages during persecution. He also cared for the sick and those in prison.
Whether we are celebrating with someone special or celebrating with our friends, let’s not forget God loves us! He is love.
God shows us what love is: Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
(1 Corinthians 13:4-8a, ESV)
