In her Father's hands...

In his father's hands...

I noticed the way my husband picked up Emma today.
After I finished feeding her, he took her from me. His big hand holding up her head, I saw his little finger holding up the neck. It's strong enough!

It made me think of my heavenly Father's hand.
Yes, His hand, even His little finger, is strong enough to hold me.

13 As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;

The Lord is always good. He never fails us. Time and time again He proves Himself faithful, although He didn't have to do such favor to me. What love is this? Amazing love, beyond words! He is our Father. At the right time indeed He rescues us. He provides for everything we need.

Psalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord watches over you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
