DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 13 to 14:4; Psalms 47-48; Acts 7:1-29
Behold I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands. Isaiah 49:16
The hands are that part of the body that we constantly have sight of throughout the day. The thought in this verse is that we are never forgotten. The hands also speak of support, shelter and security. No one can pluck us from the Father’s hands. We certainly do not deserve such love and attention. No wonder in this chapter God is referred to as the mighty one of Jacob. —Brian Russell
My name is graven on His hands;
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in heaven He stands,
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
—C. L. Bancroft
