The Eyes of the Lord

The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right, and his ears are open to their prayers. But the Lord turns his face against those who do evil.” 1 Peter 3:12 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.3.12.NLT

The Lord watches over His people just as a father watches over his children. When He finds His children excelling in representing Him He gives them support and more resources, for His work that they undertake.
We are often surprised at what He considers His work,  usually, it is people.

Our frustration can arise when we misread His heart and His desires. There are a lot of voices crying for help and yet God knows the ones we can help best. Some of those crying voices God wants to learn to be self-sufficient and to use gifts He has given them. If we run to all crying voices and try to fix their pain we are removing them from the egg and they will die as they do not know strength from the struggle.

The struggle is good! Struggle produces wings, strong legs, the strength of character, determination and most of all faith.

As God's sons and daughters, we must work with Him not run on ahead. He has all His children in His heart. We can trust Him! Amen!
