Last week my son graduated from high school. As they walked onto the football field it was hard to distinguish who was who because we were quite a distance away from the entry point and they all were pretty much wearing the same outerwear, as does happen at a graduation - lol. Of course we knew that he would be in the latter 1/2, but we also couldn't see the entirety of the line of hundreds so again, we were watching carefully. For a minute I had a thought, what if we can't pick him out? However, as soon as he came through the balloon arch I immediately recognized him. This isn't the first time that I have recognized one of my children when it is hard to spot them. Ashly and Brooklyn have often been in costume, where every dancer/actor is in the same costume, with the same hair and makeup, and sometimes the lighting is super dark. Carsyn has also been clear across the field warming up for a race etc. I had the thought at graduation that of course I can recognize them I have been watching them their whole lives. I knew Carsyn. I know my children. Then the thought occurred to me that this is just like Heavenly Father. He recognizes each one of us and He can pick us out immediately in a crowd. He has been watching us our whole lives and He KNOWS us and He IS looking out for us.
