The eyes of the LORD

I have mentioned on a few occasions how we all like to get a little recognition for the hard work and effort we put forth. It's nice to be noticed and appreciated for doing what you are supposed to do and then some. There are a lot of times that it seems that others take credit for your hard work or that you don't get the accolades you deserve for doing such a stupendous job.

I am sure that we have all felt that way at some time or another in our lives. I am sure that we have all wondered how it was even remotely fair for all the recognition to go to someone else and all the non-recognition to be ours. However, take comfort that the ONE that really matters sees all your hard work.

Today's word is 2 Chronicles 16:9a, NIV, which reads, "For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him..."

While it may appear that no one sees your efforts, no one sees your perseverance, no one sees your attention to details, no one recognizes your accomplishments, rest assured that the ONE that really matters sees it all. He knows how hard you've tried; He knows the effort you put forth; He knows the integrity in which you operate; He knows all you've done because He watches every move.

When it feels as if I am not getting a fair shake and that I am not appreciated for all that I do, I am going to try to keep this verse in mind. It is nice to receive praise for you effort; it's nicer to know that GOD is the ultimate Judge, and He sees all.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
