The eyes of God

Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy.

Psalm 33:18

The eyes of God

A Christian was seriously ill and was scheduled for surgery. On the day before his hospital admission, a friend visited him and asked, “How are you? Aren’t you a bit afraid?”

“Yes,” said the sick person, “I felt really heavy-hearted. But a fellow believer pointed me to the Lord and said, ‘Just look to the Lord Jesus, and it will be easier!’ That’s what I’m doing now and I am completely calm.”

Then his friend replied, “I know something even better!” – “Even better? Impossible! What could be better than looking to the Lord?”

“Look,” the visitor replied, “if you receive anaesthesia before the operation tomorrow, you will fall asleep. Can you still look to the Lord Jesus then?” – “No, I didn’t think about that!” the sick person responded, taken aback.

“Well, if you’re unconscious tomorrow and undergoing surgery, Psalm 34:15 will still be true: ‘The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous.’” – “Oh,” exclaimed the sick Christian, “that is truly even better!”

How encouraging it is for us that God’s eyes are always on us! He watches over us and protects us. He never sleeps but is always there for us. In today’s verse, it says that the Lord looks upon those who fear Him. This encourages us to approach Him with respect and to live in awe of Him.

Today’s reading: Jeremiah 39:1-18 · Romans 9:1-13
