“And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.” Revelation 22:4

There is beauty to be found in all forms of artwork and creative expression. I remember as a child participating in all kinds of arts and crafts projects — one of my favorites was wood burning. Using a hot soldering iron, I would carefully etch a design into a smooth piece of wood. Once the image was marked, it stayed there permanently. It was a lasting reflection of something created with intention and care.

In a similar — yet far more powerful — way, when we are in Christ, there is a divine beauty in us that causes the Lord to mark us as His own. Revelation 22:4 says, “his name shall be in their foreheads.” This isn’t just a future reality — it’s a promise of ownership, belonging, and love.

Life can be challenging. In the middle of hard seasons, it’s easy to lose sight of what God sees in us. It’s easy to forget who we are and Whose we are. But one day, all uncertainty and confusion will fade. The truth of our identity in Christ will be made visible — and undeniable — to everyone.

Yet even today, if you are in Christ, this promise already belongs to you. Ephesians 1:13 reminds us: “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth…ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise.” That seal is God’s eternal mark — a declaration that you are His. Right now, regardless of how others may see you, God sees you as forever His.

So live in the confidence of that promise. Don’t let the world define you by anything less.

Father God, thank you for the way You view me. Thank You for sealing me under the Holy Spirit of Your promise. Help me to remember who I am and Whose I am in the times when I may forget. Amen.
