Wisdom's Corner
He Sees Everyone

Have you ever been to the top of a tall building? Have you ever been to the top of a high tower? Have you ever been to the top of a very tall hill or mountain? Have you ever been on an airplane?

From all of these places you can see a long way. And if there are any people below you can see all of them. They may look very small. If you are up very high, you may not be able to see them.

I have been on top of a mountain in Spain that was overlooking a city. I could see the whole city from where I was standing. I have been on airplanes as they flew over cities. If the plane was flying low enough I could see all the people below.

God is in the highest place of all. God is in heaven. From heaven God can see every person. God does not have a seeing problem no matter how high He is. He can still see everyone. In Psalm 33:13-14 we read, "The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth."

God can see you. It does not matter if you live in the United States, or Africa, or Australia, or Europe, or South America, or any other place. God can see you and knows what you are doing. You cannot be in a place where God cannot see you.

God loves you and wants you to obey Him. He is watching to see if you do obey Him. So read your Bible so that you can know what to do to obey Him.

Until next time, keep studying your Bible. And if any of this is hard to understand, ask an adult to help you.
