You In the Crowd

I often like to get a window seat when I take a flight so I may enjoy looking out the window. When the airplane takes off, everything on the ground gets smaller and smaller. Very soon, even a large crowd, a jammed traffic on the road, residential areas and tall commercial building... all start to diminish and I can no longer recognize them or distinguish them.

I think about how God would look down on the earth from above, how tiny the people! 6.45 billion of them, scattering around all over the earth, on the continents or the islands, in the mountains or on the plains. Does he have a good vision to see my face and recognize me in the crowd?

The Lord is good, a Strength and Stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows, He recognizes, He understands those who take refuge and trust in Him. (Amplified Bible, Nahum 1:7)

What a beautiful Word of God! For all who put their trust in the Lord, the Lord will recognize them in the crowd. I am not just another face, but I bear the mark of Christ and He recognizes me!
