Verses for Loving Yourself

God will never forget me. My name is written on His hands.

A Bible affirmation for loving yourself, rooted in Isaiah 49:15-16.

Can a woman forget her nursing child, or lack compassion for the son of her womb? Even if she could forget, I will not forget you! Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; your walls are ever before Me.

Isaiah 49:15-16 · BSB

Reflection

God's people felt forgotten. His answer: can a nursing mother forget her baby? Even if she could, I will not forget you. I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands. You are always in front of Him.

A prayer

Lord, when I feel forgotten, remind me that my name is on Your hands.
