My granddad liked to give me and my brothers a hard time about our temporary tattoos. It became a fun game where we'd put them on and then show him as soon as possible. We'd taunt him, "Look, Granddad, we have tattoos!" and he'd moan and groan. It was fun. At this point in my life, I don't see myself getting a tattoo. I try to never say never, but it just isn't something that sounds like me. I think it's because I change my mind and likes so often :) But I do really like the temporary tattoos and I like to write things on my arm/wrist/hand. I like the physical reminders of whatever I'm trying to remember. There are even companies that make Bible verse tattoos to help you memorize! How cool is that?
But if I did get a tattoo? What would it be? The things that have meant a lot to me, the things I need to remember the most, and the things that I write most are: - delights - but God - grace & truth - peace be with you (or something related to peace) The first is a reminder to delight myself in God but also that He delights in me. The second is from the song Alive by Big Daddy Weave. No matter what is going on, there is always a "but God" and that is life giving. The third is how I want to live my life and what I want to govern all that I say/write. I want to live with grace and truth. Finally, I have the phrase "peace be with you" as a wall decal. Peace is something I've always needed and it's the reminder that Jesus is my peace and He does not give peace as the world gives it. So if I were to get a tattoo, it's probably be one of those. How would I choose? I don't know and that's why I'll probably just keep writing them on my wrist :) Do you have a tattoo? (Or if you have more than one, a particularly meaningful one?) Do you want to get one someday? What would it be and why?
