To ink or not to ink?

Lately I've been thinking about getting a tattoo. Not that I haven't thought about it on and off for the last few years, but lately, I've been thinking about it seriously.
The concept of the tattoo is not in question, there is no doubt in my mind what it is that I want permanently marked on my body and of course, there's a story behind it.
About seven years ago I crossed paths with one of the most influential women in my life, Marnie. Marnie and I met through a friend and there was no doubt that our meeting was orchestrated by God. God used.Marnie to speak incredible truth into my life. During our very first meeting, she pulled me aside and prayed over me, it's as if God had told her everything that was going on in my life. I thank God for the role that Marnie played in helping me to grow closer to Him. Marnie was in my life for about a year before she moved away to continue her ministry with her family. That one year was one of the most significant of my life.
So obviously after sharing that I would hope you've guessed that Marnie has something to do with this tattoo concept... And you would be right, sort of. It has more to do with the vision that God shared with her. One day I was with a bunch of my ministry teammates, on our way out of town for a weekend conference. During the drive, one of my teammates got a call on their cell phone and handed the phone to me (I didn't have a cell at the time, let alone a BlackBerry). This was Marnie calling for me. She advised that she had been praying for me and that during her prayer God had given her a vision. The gist of the vision was this... My heart was made of thin glass inside of which was a small rose bud. When I took my heart and placed it in God,a hands it began to change, the rose bid blossomed into a beautiful red rose and the walls of the glass heart began to grow stronger and more solid in the hands of God. Over the years that vision has reminded me of how important it is that I trust God and put my life in his hands. No doubt there have also been times when I have forgotten this vision and those were often times that I've grown apart from God.
Right now, I am going through a difficult season in my life.
This vision has again come to mind and I don't ever want to forget it. So this is why I am thinking about getting a rose tattoo. To mark myself with a reminder of the vision that God has given to me as a reminder to keep my heart in His hands.
