THE SEED
“The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord is on his heavenly throne. He observes everyone on earth; his eyes examine them.”
In Psalm 11:4, we are reminded that the Lord, from His throne in heaven, sees everything, He is keeping watch on the wicked and the good. God’s watchful gaze is a comforting thought. It means that in times of joy or sorrow, in moments of triumph and struggle, His eyes are on us. He sees our actions, knows our hearts, and is aware of every circumstance we face. This awareness brings both responsibility and solace. We are responsible for our actions, for God observes them. However, we also find solace in the knowledge that God sees our pain, our joys, and our efforts. He sees every tear and every smile, and He is with us through it all. As we go about our daily lives, let us remember that the Lord’s eyes are upon us. And as a child of God, this awareness should guide us to live in a manner pleasing to Him. And when we face challenges or uncertainties, we should also find comfort in the knowledge that we are never alone, for the Lord, our loving and watchful Father, is with us.
BIBLE READINGS: Psalms 11:4-7
PRAYER: Lord, let the awareness of your gaze on me guide me to live a righteous and victorious life, in Jesus’ name. Amen
