Held


Look at that face. He's completely secure.

No one has told him that his parents are kinda old.

He has no fear of anything.

All is well in his little world.

Makes me think of that verse, "...underneath are the everlasting arms."

I hunted it down, in Deuteronomy of all places, at the end of Moses's blessing over the tribes of Israel.

"There is no one like the God of Jeshurun,
who rides on the heavens to help you.
and on the clouds in his majesty.
The eternal God is your refuge,
and underneath are the everlasting arms.
He will drive out your enemy before you,
saying, 'Destroy him!'
So Israel will live in safety alone;
Jacob's spring is secure
in a land of grain and new wine,
where the heavens drop dew.
Blessed are you, Oh Israel!
Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD?
He is your shield and helper,
and your glorious sword.
Your enemies will cower before you,and you will trample down their high places."

Deut. 33: 26-29

  2. Ah, and no one will have to tell him that his (kinda old...ha!) parents love each other, either. He already knows :) LOVE that picture!
