NO NAME TAGS
NO NAME TAGS

I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my
hands. Isaiah 49:15-16
Saturday morning, and I decided to try and beat the crowd to the
grocery store. I was in line to pay, and 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, etc., 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 everytime He looks at us! That's good news.

PRAYER
"Holy Spirit, fan the flame of God's love within me and consume me with
your fire, that I may grow in the knowledge of Jesus Christ and ever
seek to do his will. May my heart never grow dull and may my ears never
tire of listening to the voice of Christ."

Our Father has engraved us on the palms of His Holy Hands.
He knows us more than we do.
He knows the needs of our hearts.
He knows our troubles.
He knows what will delight us.
Even without name tags.
And He will provide more than enough!
Faith.
