God Sees All
Two little children were playing in their sitting room one evening. They were brother and sister and their names were George and Sheena. Their mummy brought into the room a lovely plate of creamy cakes and laid them on the table.
“Oh, I want one of these cakes cried George, jumping up as soon as mummy left the room, and going over to the table. “No, no,” said Sheena, pulling him back; “No you mustn’t touch.” “Mummy won’t know, she didn’t count them” he cried, shaking her off and stretching out his hand. “If she didn’t, perhaps God counted,” answered his sister. George’s hand dropped down and he was stopped from taking the cake.
Now, boys and girls, here is a little lesson to remind you that our God in heaven surely does know all and sees all. This should be a great comfort and help to us as we grow up through life. It can stop us from many foolish and unwise actions, and it can also give us help when we are troubled and frightened. However, the greatest comfort of all is to be sure that God knows that we are sinners, and yet, in His love and mercy, He sent Jesus Christ into the world to save sinners. God knows us all; may we all learn to know Him.
