Knowing God - His Eyes are on Those who Fear Him


Psalm 33:18
Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him,
 upon them that hope in his mercy;
His Eye is on Those Who Fear Him

When we are making it our aim to respond to life in a way that pleases the Lord, His eye is upon us in a unique and safeguarding way.  His mercy is something we can hope in.  He can take anything we have done or others have done and turn it around in a most surprising and powerful way.  We must be much more in awe of who God is and what He can do than the choices and events caused by people or that which befalls us in this life.  We must fear HIM!  We must be a people who live our lives in a way that we are confident that His eye is upon us as we concern ourselves with His plans in a situation and His ability to show mercy through it all.  We are commanded here to actually behold that His eye is on us if we are doing these things.  Lord, I believe that as I fear you and hope in your mercy, your eye is upon ME!  I am safe, guarded and being directed by You!
