cheerfully, gratefully, they post reports of His hand at work, saving them from harm
‘angels on their bumper’, or ‘God was watching over’, they write
i glance at lingering son…
i know parents who have lost…and some nearly so…losing the one they knew, a stranger taking his place
was God not watching? did the angels not care that day?
perhaps the answer lies somewhere in between
could it be the importance is not the event itself, but how we respond?
could it be that God is watching, loving, all of us…no matter the outcome, in our perception?
so we love without limit, serve with no end, grieve what was, and hope in what is to come
because He is watching, loving, helping us through…lighting our way and sustaining our trust
