God has blessed me with two beautiful daughters, two fine sons-in-law, and four grandchildren. I have other family, but these are my children.

They are always on my heart.

Throughout each day and each night, their names and faces circle through my mind, and I pray for them. They are precious to me.

The other day the thought struck me –

if my children are always on my heart, how can I doubt that God’s children are always, always on His heart.

He does not forget His own.

Psalm 139:17 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! NLT

Isaiah 49:15 “Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you. NJKV

Hebrews 6:10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
