God...and Rudy....and Me

The other day, Ben took the kids to the park and I had a few minutes by myself at home. I did a few things I needed to do and then sat down and decided to see if there was anything fun to watch on tv. I found the last few minutes of the movie Rudy. I had seen it a long time ago and knew that the part I was catching was the best part of the whole movie. So I watched. Cried. Felt good. And then the final scene comes on...all the football players pick up Rudy and put him on their shoulders and carry him off the field.

Something right away snapped in me and I began to wonder if that is what I should feel like everyday as a believer...like God is carrying me on His shoulders.

I have been pondering that thought for several days and have decided that maybe by plunking away on this keyboard, I would get some perspective on the answer. I think I am getting that perspective...and I think the answer is YES! He is carrying me everywhere I go. His hands are on me...His eyes are watching over me...His Holy Spirit is guiding me.

Praise God for that!
