God Is Watching
“And surely I am with you always to the very end of the age”
Matthew 28:20
Errol Dominique admits to being a people watcher. There is a lot to learn from watching the activities of people as they go about their daily routine. On a visit to a shopping mall, Errol watched as a toddler took his hand from his mother’s hand and began to walk disconnected from her. He walked aimlessly among the people and played with different objects that caught his attention along the way. That is until he gained the uneasy feeling of being alone in an environment to which he was unaccustomed to. Finally, his uneasiness turned to frantic crying. Errol had to admit that while his attention was on the boy, he thought, “That is a shame that child’s parents allowed him to wander around unnoticed and unprotected.” However, Errol soon noticed the boy’s mother, who was not too far away move. The baby could not see her, but she could see him. And when it appeared that he had enough of his independence, she came to his rescue.
I suppose it’s that way for many of us from time to time. We think we’re ready for independence in the marketplace of life, only to experience the unsettling of being left alone in a mean cruel world of strangers who could care less about us or our well beings. But isn’t it good to know that there is one watching over us, and just when it becomes too much to bear, He shows up to rescue us?
