For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth,
to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.
2 Chronicles 16:9
We don’t think of it, but seeing is a spiritual discipline. The references to seeing and looking in
a chapter on faith, Hebrews 11, are abundant. But what are we to see? And what gets in the
way of us seeing with our faith?
God is looking. The verse from 2 Chronicles challenges us to be noticed by God. And God
notices people with hearts loyal to him. The context of this verse is a time where God wanted
to display his glory to the enemies of God’s people. Yet, their hearts were conflicted, seeking
help from sources other than their God.
We like to devise schemes to get us out of the situations we find ourselves in. Still God is
looking. We panic and grasp at straws to find answers. God is still looking. We even accept the
situation as hopeless. Still God is looking.
When God sees us in Twinsburg does God find what he is looking for? My prayer for my life
and ministry is “God look here.” To do that, I know that my heart must be loyal and seeking
after God? When God sees us in Twinsburg, does God find what he is looking for?
