GOD SEES US

“The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.  From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.  He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.”

Psalm 33:13-15 KJV

We need to remember that God sees us.  He sees us when we do things that hurt someone.  He also sees us when we are kind and loving to one another.  What does God see when He looks at us?  Does He see things that make Him happy or does He see things that hurt Him and break His heart?

Someone said “What I do in my own home is my own business.”  That is not true because everything we do and everything we say is God’s business.  God sees us when we hit our spouse or our children and He also hears us when we say cruel words to them.  May God help us to be kind and loving to one another.

There is a big difference between spanking and hitting our children.  There are some children who hide when they hear their parents coming because they are afraid of their parents.  How comforting and reassuring it is to our battle scarred heart to know we don’t have to be afraid of our Heavenly Father.

Heavenly Father, thank You for being a Father we can trust and not have to worry if You’re going to hit us.  Your unconditional love for us and Your tenderness heal our broken heart.  Please help us to love our children and one another with unconditional love as You love us.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
