Psalm 1.1:

"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly..."

The true believer should indeed think very differently from the way the world thinks.

Psalm 2.12:

"Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him."

@1stCenturyLady So do you think this Psalm looks good?

My tattoo was very small and wasn't that sore- but I would imagine some of the bigger tattoos are...

Did you feel that you were being particularly brave when it was been needled in?

I think a Psalm quote can make a good tattoo, although of course the longer quotes might end up being rather sore, at least, for a while...

No, there was nothing brave about it - must admit I have quite a high pain threshold. I had no fear or concern about having the tattoo. Now my daughter is another story, she has a fear of needles- but she knew what she wanted and did it despite of her fears - so she was brave x

I have talked to young ppl tattooed with substantial Scripture quotations. They must have hurt them quite a lot, but I do admire their dedication, anyway.

Some ppl like yourself have I guess more of a high pain threshold, than being 'brave'. Seems anyway that as a confidently tattooed Christian woman you successfully found the strength to go into the parlor and do it, right?

Very rewarding for those who do, anyway.

Scripture quotations - not least, Psalms - can make really good tattoos, anyway.

The Psalm is good, but the writing line work would get criticized on Ink Master as not being precise. It may look better in a few days when the swelling and redness heals.
Good point about the calligraphy; thanks.

It really looks sore; but I reckon he thinks it was well worth it, right?

Especially for a man, it's in a good placement.

I've talked to young ppl with quite lengthy Scripture quote tattoos and I admire their dedication.

A Psalm quote would make for a good tattoo, I reckon.

I suppose you would be very glad one day if your brave daughter was in a frame of mind eventually to get a tattoo design inked in that was faith based?

PS: There can quite a cost involved in soreness to receiving punctiliously correct and legible Scripture quotations, can't there?

But I have been impressed at the dedication of young Christians of both genders who have manifestly shown themselves willing to undergo it.
