We are being Watched!
Someone said, “Character is what we are when no one is watching.”
Do you belong to those who think no one is watching? Think again!
David in the Bible asked the Lord two questions.
First question: “Where can I go from your Spirit?
Second question: “Where can I flee from your presence?”
Here are his answers:
The Lord is in heaven and in the depths. He says also that the right hand of the Lord will hold him fast if he rises on the wings of the dawn and if he settles on the far side of the sea. He says also that darkness will not hide him, because darkness is as light to the Lord.
“‘THOU GOD SEEST ME.'”
O don’t know if the words are still there. I saw them written on the wall above the entrance to the big hall of the WEIGLE HAUS in Essen/Germany. The WEIGLE HAUS was a meeting place for boys between 14-18 years of age and was run by a pastor. Every Sunday started with a Church Service at 8.30 in the morning and the whole Sunday was full of activities for young boys. Often you could find 500-700 boys in the Club House on a Sunday afternoon.

I have lived , sir, a long time, and the longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, it is probably that an empire cannot rise without His aid.” – Benjamin Franklin
Where shall we go?
“I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom, and that of all about me, seemed inefficient for the day,” said Abraham Lincoln.
“‘You do not want to leave too, do you?’ Jesus asked the Twelve.” And what does Simon Peter answer? Here is his answer: “‘Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal live.'”
The apostle says to the sanctified in Corinth that it is because of God that they are in Christ Jesus and that the Lord Jesus Christ has become for them wisdom from God. He explains also what that means.
It means three things:
1. The Lord Jesus Christ is their righteousness.
The Lord made them right with God.
2. The Lord Jesus Christ is their holiness.
The Lord made them pure and holy.
3. The Lord Jesus Christ is their redemption.
The Lord freed them from sin.
“God answers Kneem@il.” “A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing.”

Memorizing Verses from the BIBLE
MIRROR
James 1:23,24 reminded me again to memorize Scripture.
“Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks looks like.” – James 1:23,24

The sociologist who does not adequately understand God cannot thoroughly understand God’s masterpiece – man – so he will be in error at some point in his sociology.” – D. Stuart Briscoe
