The other day I saw a friend write a phone number of someone on the palm of her hand. I’ve seen others write their grocery list on their hand. And, I remember when I was a kid in school, seeing some \u201ccheaters\u201d write the answers to test questions on the palms of their hands. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been a fan of Max Lucado’s writings for years because he writes with a style that awakens my thought processes. Every time I read one of his books or writings, I have an \u201caha\u201d moment. So now that I\u2019ve built my case for Max Lucado and his God-given anointing to pen God\u2019s heart for us to know Him better, I want to \u201cgift\u201d you with the following inspiring words from his book, \u201cWhen God Whispers Your Name\u201d to tell you how much God loves you:<\/p>\n

“When I see a flock of sheep I see exactly that, a flock. A rabble of wool. I don\u2019t see a sheep. I see sheep. All alike. None different. But not so with the Shepherd. To Him every sheep is different. Every face has a story. John 10:3 says, \u201cThe sheep listen to the voice of the shepherd. He calls his own sheep by name.\u201d When we see a crowd, we see exactly that, a crowd. We see people, not persons. A herd of humans. But not so with the Shepherd. To Him every face is different. Every face is a story. The Shepherd knows you. He knows your name. And He will never forget it. God said in Isaiah 49:16, \u201cI have written your name on my hand.\u201d Quite a thought isn\u2019t it? Your name on God\u2019s hand. My name on God\u2019s hand\u2026how could it be?\u201d– Max Lucado<\/p>\n

Those words not only encourage and bless me, but they assure me of God\u2019s love for me. In the 7th grade, I fell for a boy named Ronnie Wuerch. I wrote his name on my books, my folders and in the palm of my hand. It meant I was thinking about him all the time. And how awesome to know that our names are written in the palm of God’s hand? He is in love with us. He’s thinking about us all the time. We are individualized. We are so special. We are one-of-a-kind masterpieces. Yes, that, my friends, is TRUE LOVE! And, oh, by the way……your name is written on the palm of His hand, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
