A few weeks ago I did some glass engraving on jars to give as gifts for Christmas and it's something that requires a lot of pressure because the glass is so hard. Once the impression is carved into the glass nothing will get it out, it's permanent.
I think God is reminding us that in the same way He had us engraved into the palms of His hands so we'll know He has a permanent reminder of us with Him for ever. When Jesus went to the cross those nail prints He suffered will be there forever too, and every time He looks at His hands He remembers He did it for each one of us because of His great love for us.
So if ever the enemy comes and tells you God has forgotten all about you just point him to Jesus and His nail pierced hands and it will silence him because he'll see your name written there too.
One more thought, some people carry photos of their loved ones in their purse or phone and in a sense that's what God does when He looks at the palms of His hands. He sees His loved ones engraved there and He remembers us, so be encouraged today, and know God's remembering you all the time with great love and He can never forget you because He doesn't want to. Thank You Lord.
