Written in Blood

 Ute Park, Colorado Springs, Colorado

I have often wondered how many couples, having etched their love in stone, are still deeply and madly in love with each other. Are Karen and her lover still in love? And what about people who have tattooed the name of their loved one on their bodies? Do they experience tattooer's regret?

"Then those who feared the LORD spoke with one another. The LORD paid attention and heard them, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who feared the LORD and esteemed his name." Malachi 3:16 English Standard Version

God is as much in love with you today as he was yesterday and as he will be forever. He has written a book of remembrance in which your name has been written with the blood of his Son, Jesus Christ.

I'm not sure how many times these lover have come back to visit this rock. They may have never returned, yet God remembers what has been written every day. His book is an everlasting book of remembrance.

As I've mentioned before, there are times that we experience the absence of God (not that he is really absent, just that we do not feel his presence). Know with confidence that God will never forget you. It's written in blood.
