The Eyes of the Lord

*Ever-watching: He watches the level of frustration as it roller-coasters in your life. He
sees the oncoming stress and the downgoing pain. He monitors carefully so not
one ounce of stress or pain is wasted. Fear not--you will survive--the eyes of the Lord are upon you. That's all you need to know!

"Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy (Psalms 33:18 KJV)."

*Ever-knowing: He sees the faltering footsteps. He knows what we cannot know, for He
sees what we cannot see. His divine eye sees far beyond the human circumstance, and into the realm of the spirit--He is working in your life something of eternal value. Fear not--you will survive--the eyes of the Lord are upon you. That's all you need to know!

"O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising; thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether (Psalm 139:1-4 KJV)."

*Ever-loving: He sees the failing heart. He knows you've blown it, for He saw it coming.
And yet He loves you. He wants to take those failures and turn them into victories. The sins you've committed today can be forgiven, forgotten, and become the freeing words of testimony to another--He wastes nothing, including failure. So fear not--you will survive--the eyes of the Lord are upon you. That's all you need to know!

"...I have loved thee with an everlasting love; therefore, with lovingkindness have I drawn thee (Jeremiah 31:3 KJV)."
*Ever-planning: He sees the future that frightens. He understands every apprehension you have, even the unspoken ones too deep for words. The future is not frightening to Him. It is full and bright--bright as the promises He has placed within your heart. So fear not--you will survive--the eyes of the Lord are upon you. That's all you need to know!
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end (Jeremiah 29:11 KJV)."

"The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry.”
–Psalm 34:15
