YOU GOT MY BACK?

Every time we have a conversation with someone, we do so facing each other. We don't see the back of that person. When we carry a child, likewise the child sees the front side of us but not the back. When I am preaching on stage, we all see each other's fronts, not the backs because we are facing each other. The only time we see the back of a person is when that person is walking away from us or sitting in front of us. Do you know if you look closely, the back of a person can indicate that person's composure?

A lot of people want to put up a front in front of others, especially parents when it comes to their children. They don't want to show their weaknesses or their burdens. They try to put up a front because they want to encourage their kids and assure them that all is good. But their backs may tell a different story.  Slumped shoulders perhaps indicate a burden they are carrying? A hunched back posture may tell you that they are tired and weighed down and discouraged. We always notice the front. Try looking at the back once in awhile. It'll be nice once in awhile to know that someone's got our backs.

I know God's got my back :)
