ONLY ONE SENTENCE – BUT A MOST POWERFUL SERMON

About one week ago I  found my mobile phone unlocked in my satchel. Surprise, surprise, it should have been locked. I know also how much credit I have on my mobile at any time. Don’t be surprised about that! The mysterious user of my phone made a call for more than twenty Dollars.

Only a small incident!p1060643

Just a prank?

But I was reminded again about a place in Essen/Germamy, where a youth pastor worked for many years. Above the entrance door to the main auditorium was written in  the German language:

“DU GOTT SIEHEST MICH”

Yes, it was a Saturday, when I talked to somebody about the best translation into english of  “Du Gott siehest mich”. We came to the conclusion that a good translation is:

“YOU GOD SEE EVERYTHING I DO.”

Next day was Sunday and in church our pastor was talking about the same thing. I was listening carefully.  And there was something I had to write down. I had paper, the church newsletter and somebody gave me a pen to write.

I have the church newsletter here before me. On the last page is some empty space for SERMON NOTES. I wrote there the following:

“GOD IS WATCHING YOU (ME)”

The Lord was also watching the mysterious user of my phone one week ago! He is watching the unbelievers and the believers!

“DU GOTT SIEHEST MICH”

Only one sentence, but a most powerfull message! Don’t you agree?
