A week ago I went on a trip with a bunch of girl friends and as we drove they talked a lot about their kids. They always noticed things their children would like or were wondering what they were doing. I saw the way each of them cared so much about their children and how their love and concern for their children was at the forefront of their being. Then I read this scripture:
15 For can a awoman forget her sucking child, that she should not have bcompassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may cforget, yet will I not forget thee, O house of Israel.
16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the apalms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
I thought about how I couldn't image any of these girls forgetting their babies, but Christ ensures us that as deep as their love is for their children, His love is stronger. He will never forget us and will never abandon us. We are reminded that he had died for us and had His hands pierced for us. These will always be there as a reminder of what he has done for us and as sign of His love you and me.
