The Palm of His Hand

~~~ Isaiah 49: 8-15 ~~~Psalm 145 ~~~ John 5: 17-30 ~~~

'...Can a mother forget her infant,
be without tenderness for the child of her womb?
Even should she forget,
I will never forget you...'

Time after time God proves his love for us.

He shows this love in his words and his actions.

He brings water forth from a rock...parts seas allowing for safe passage...

Effortlessly, He cuts a road through a mountain.

Time after time he shows his love and yet

we still experience times of doubts.

God says even if your own mother were to abandon you

he would still be there.

There is no human love that compares with the love of God.

'...The LORD is good to all
and compassionate toward all his works.'

He has written each of our names on the palm of his hand.

This same hand that healed and fed hundreds if not thousands of people

during the public ministry of Jesus.

Jesus does only the work of his Father.

The Father is extending himself through the person of Jesus.

If you love Jesus then it follows that you also love the Father.

The Son and the Father are one in the same.

You cannot have one without the other.

Jesus humbled himself to become one of us.

He came to do the will of the Father.

The will of the Father is filled love, compassion, and mercy.

Our Triune God is kind and merciful...

slow to anger...rich in kindness.

We are so blessed!

At least one drop of his precious blood from his nail pierced hand

fell to the ground for you.

'...See, upon the palms of my hands I have engraved you...'
