THE EYES OF THE LORD

Now I don’t know about you, but we all have some preconceived notion or vision of what God looks like ….and what He is doing out there in that great vast unknown called Heaven.

For many, they see God as some benevolent grandfather, sitting and rocking peacefully in his rocking chair…watching quietly as the world spins by….and once in a while, He chips in with a blessing or two to make life worthwhile…..the mindset of these folks is usually, “God helps those who help themselves!”

Others view God as some fearsome tyrant that is waiting to catch them doing something wrong just so He can zap them with some personal disaster….their mindset, “ I’m not going to do anything for God, it will only end badly.”

There are many more “views” of who God is and what He’s doing; in fact, too many to count. But, God’s Holy Word gives us a clue in 2 Chronicles 16:9 …" For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.”

The eyes of the Lord are on each of us as God searches for those who need and want His help….those who are committed to follow Him, to be obedient to His will, to hold Him in great esteem and honor….He is always looking out across the landscape of time and space to see who will stand and be counted for Him.

God is ALWAYS looking out across His creation, seeking to find those that believe in Him and have called upon the name of Jesus for their salvation….but more than that, He is keeping a record of every thought, every deed…done or undone….He is writing your life story through the eyes of the Creator.

How does God see your life and what else do we need to know about the eye of the Lord? What great truths await us as we consider how God's eye is always running to and fro?

This week, I hope to share some personal insights that will help us understand how God is looking out for us and what the Scriptures can teach us about the Eye of the Lord.

The image above I received yesterday in an email. It reminded me that God is always watching and looking to strengthen those that He loves and are called according to His purpose….it was taken by NASA’s Hubble telescope and is believed to occur only once every 3,000 years….it is entitled “ The Eye of God”.

Please join me all this week as we learn more about the beautiful eyes of the Lord ….and how He sees each of us….until tomorrow, remember,

THE EYE OF GOD IS WATCHING YOU TODAY….FOR HE LOVES YOU WITH AN EVERLASTING LOVE!!!!!!!

In My Father's Eyes,
