I read an article this morning in Today's christian woman about God's tattoo and for the first time, the revelation and importance of Isaiah 49:16 hits me hard. What a love! What a way to be remembered and continually be in Gods' presence. The bible says we are engraven on the palm of God - ' Behold I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands...'.
Engrave is to carve letters, pictures or design something on stone etc. It also means to decorate or fix or impress something deeply either on an object or on the mind. It is deep and permanent. That is what tattoo is too. It is a mark or a design put on someone that is deep and permanent. This mark cannot be remove except something deeper happens. Nothing deeper can happen except the relationship or attachment to that thing or person is off.
In our relationship with God, its forever. The bible says whilst we were yet sinners He loved us. That is without acknowledging His Lordship over our life and destiny, he loves us. His love is unconditional and deep. To show His love and how into us he is, He has to engraven us on the palm of His hand. How wonderful!. How lovely!. Can you imagine any love so undying so true?
We are in the palm of God's hands, in God's power and there is nothing any one can do about it.
