"I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands." Isaiah 49:15-16
It was Saturday morning and I decided to try and beat the crowd to the grocery store. I was the checkout lane when I overheard a customer telling the cashier that she had just gotten back from a trip to her class reunion. She bubbled, explaining how much fun it was to see people from "'way back then". As she continued on about how much everyone had changed, she said, "In fact, it's a good thing we had name tags, or we might not have known each other!"
Time does have a way of doing that. Isn't it good to know that there's someone who will always know us, even without name tags, no matter how life or aging may have changed our appearances?
We are told, in Jeremiah 1:5, that our wonderful heavenly Father has known us since before "'way back when". He always recognizes us and He is filled with delight every time He looks at us. That's good news!
