By Joan Rowden Hart (A Daily Devotional)
As I began carving out the good pictures of my little granddaughters to use later, I noticed that their "Papa", my husband, was always somewhere in the photo. Sometimes you could see his legs or his hands, maybe the back of his head, but I realized he was always somewhere in the background, always close to these precious little girls. He never let them out of his sight when they come to visit.
Isn't that just like our Heavenly Father? No matter where we are or what we are doing, we know He is always there, and if you look real closely you will catch a glimpse of Him. He loves us and stands ready to guard us and keep us safe from harm.
Do you remember singing this old song years ago?
Standing somewhere in the shadows you'll find Jesus
He's the only One who cares and understands
Standing somewhere in the shadows you will find Him
And you'll know Him by the nailprints in His hand.
