Weird coincidence: Writing "The Lord's" on the back of my right hand.

It simply means you are slave minded, OP; being a slave is in your nature and you strongly desire to not just be, but announce that you are the property of another. You take pride in this and wear your masters ownership of you willingly and prominently for all the world to see.

Thanks. That's a bit "out there" for my literalist upbringing, but I appreciate the comments.

I've considered all the arguments v.v. the "true Sabbath" and, like I mentioned once before, I think God wants us to be right with Him in our hearts, and is not as concerned with "form."

Substance > Form

A funny thing about "literal" stuff in the Bible is that there is only ONE place where we were not spoken to in parable, but rather by the actual hand of God--The Ten Commandments. (Aside from possibly the disembodied hand writing on the palace wall in Daniel?) Just food for thought.

I think your commitment and love for God in these dark times are the truly important attributes that the Father sees. I think writing "The Lord's" on your hand is a statement of that commitment and that's not a bad things.

Just get 777 tattood on ya hand.

That'l fuck em when it comes time for them to roll out the mark.

Throughout the years I've been tempted to get a tattoo. But I never did. Different events in my life, like my dog dying really tempted me. But I always thought the Bible said something about not defacing our bodies, so I never got any tattoos or piercings (although my mother pierced my ears when I was 3 months old which is customary in Spain, so I do have one piercing, but not through my actions.)

All of that being said (whew!) I would LOVE to have "The Lord's" tattoo'd on my hand.

Does anyone for sure if tattoo's are wrong in the Catholic faith?

LOL..that works too.

Hmm that's interesting for sure

I don't know why, for sure. But a few months ago, I suddenly decided to write

"THE
LORD'S"

...on the back of my right hand.

Every few days it would fade, and I would re-write it.

I've been reading through the Bible for several years, at a pace of about once through each year. I must have been in Deuteronomy or Joshua--somewhere around there--but when I came to Isaiah a couple weeks ago, I came to this verse:

"One will say, `I belong to the LORD'; another will call himself by the name of Jacob; still another will write on his hand, `The LORD's,' and will take the name Israel." Is. 44:5

Maybe it means nothing, but I thought I would post it here to see if any of my Christian friends may have done the same...

Thanks. That's very interesting, especially as I had always heard they would be virgins. But, I also found this now:

In my particular case, however, I fear I am far from qualified in this area (but forgiven.)
