He actually still sometimes does it, and I've come to start developing the habit in my own life as well.
There's just something about being able to see it written there that helps it stick
In fact, I noticed not too long ago that I was having trouble remembering what I was reading in my quiet times as the day progressed, so I started applying this trick to that as well.
Almost every morning I try to find one key word that will help me remember the passage I read and I write that on my palm or my wrist.
Then I'll see it multiple times a day and be reminded of the important stuff.
I write the important stuff on the palm of my hand
Isaiah 49:16 says, "See, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands; your walls are ever before me."
When I read that verse the other day, it struck me that most people only write on their palm what they want to remember (AKA the important stuff).
If God has us forever engraved on the palms of His hands, He must want to remember us
We must be important to Him
I know how easy it is to get so caught up in all the lies this world throws at us that we're not valuable and unlovable and unseen
But, friends, if there is one thing I want you to take away from this post it is that you are so important that the Maker of all of the Universe has your name written on the palm of His hand.
You are important
