A child stands alone in a crowd of busy Holiday shoppers. Lost. She searches frantically as the towering waves of legs and shopping bags almost knock her over. Her heart beats faster as she rushes from one isle to the next. “What do I do? Where do I go?” A speeding shopping cart nearly plows her over, the driver never even looking her way. Worn out and frightened she cowers under a rack of Christmas sweaters. Shaken she sits, too drained to search anymore, “Help me!” she cries out, “I am lost”. Just then a hand reaches down and grasps her own. She looks up and sees the eyes of her Daddy. Safety. She is not alone, she has been found by her father. He was looking for her the whole time, seeking her out, to hold her and save her. “Don’t be afraid, Daddy is here, I’m going to take care of you. ” His strong, warm words put her at ease as they walk off hand in hand.
For I am the LORD, your God,
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.
Isaiah 41:13
