who do I trust to watch my child

When autocorrect puts you on the correct footing. 

Today I was looking for a GPS for my kid, some kind of air tag tile something or other, that I can put in her backpack or on her shoe. So that I can have control, or at least a false sense of that. 

As I was typing it into my third search engine it auto corrected my GPS to God. 

I smiled, kind of laughed, pushing it off. The third time I typed it in.... autocorrecting it to God again. I took a breath and realized YES, God you've got this covered. Your eyes are always on her, you've counted and loved every hair on her head, you've carefully knit her together in my womb, You know her steps, her to and fro, You collect her tears in jars. There is no where she can go that You won't know. My job is to raise her to love You, to seek You 1st, and to love others more. 

My job is not to worry, not to fret, not to hold tight. My job is to trust You with my child as Abraham trusted you with his. 

Thank you auto correct for that today.
