As I sat waiting for my class I noticed that a dad was walking his daughter around the building hand in hand. You could tell she was only beginning to learn how to walk, but she walked with confidence even though each step was an accomplishment. Her father continued to walk her around the building up and down the stairs and through the halls. While watching this I realized several things. First of all the girl even though she was walking in circles, she was so happy to simply be led by her father and to be able to be with him. Secondly, all though the stairs may have seemed like a mountain to her she did not fear because, she know her father would not let anything happen to her. Furthermore, I noticed the joy in the father's face. I think this simple picture reflects our relationship with God. He wants nothing more than to have us hold his hand and be led wherever He wants to take us: step by step trusting him that he will never let us fall no matter how many stairs (mountains) we have to climb. He is delighted when we walk with him and have the faith that He will always be beside us holding our hand and guiding us.
