SCRIPTURE: Psalm (NIV) 138:6 Though the LORD is on high, he looks upon the lowly: but the proud he knows from afar.
OBSERVATION: The Lord is highly exalted above all creation, yet his eyes are drawn to the humble. He knows the value of humility. He is not looking for those who can put on a good show; he looks for those willing to work behind the scenes. He is looking for those who serve faithfully even when no one is looking. He who never sleeps and whose eyes are never closed sees what no one else sees. He sees what people do when they think no one else is watching.
He knows what the proud are doing, but his attention is drawn to the humble.
APPLICATION: It is important for little children to know that their mom or dad is watching. If I want to have God’s attention and enjoy His presence “up close” I must learn to walk in humility. I must be willing to serve those who cannot repay me. I must serve with equal passion when people are watching and when no one is watching. I am a child of the kingdom; my Heavenly Father is watching me!
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I pray that you enjoy watching me. Give me an opportunities to serve in ways that no one will know but you. Amen
