Father Stands Behind Me

Recently I saw this picture in one of my mother's photo albums and asked her if I could borrow it to post here. This was taken back in 1946 when I was 15 months old. Didn't my father look handsome and manly? He was!

Dad has gone "home" to be with our heavenly Father so I don't have him to stand behind me anymore but "my heavenly Father watches over me".

Reminds me of the words of a chorus I wrote way back in the 70's.


"Before me, behind me, Thy hand shall be upon me,
Thy right hand shall lead me and guide me always..."


Fall back into Father's arms and rest in Him. He'll stand behind you and strengthen you as you journey on.

"The eternal God is your refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms." - Deuteronomy 33:27

  1. What an awesome picture David! Your Dad truly does look like a handsome man! How wonderful to have, captured for all time, that moment of Father and son enjoying being together.
