"The Eyes Of The Lord Are In Every Place,
Keeping Watch Upon The Evil And The Good."
~Proverbs 15:3.
~Proverbs 15:3.
Keeping the Commandment from Exodus 20:13, "You Shall Not Steal."
Electric eyes, eyes of salesmen, security guards, video cameras, metal detectors, alarms, police cars, detectives, searches, frisked, suspicion, teenager fix, get back at 'em, petty theft, not really a crime, politicians stealing not me, grab it, hide it, in a pocket, inside a coat, they'll never know, phones tapped, "The Eyes Of The Lord Are In Every Place," FBI, CIA, Home Security Departments, damn it! It is wrong to steal! O but it is so easy. O but everyone steals. Who is it gonna hurt? O but it is a corporation, O but they are richer than me, O but I deserve it. Stealing a grape off a vine in a grocery store is like stealing from God. Watching the evil, keeping us on the right and holy path, guilt eating oneself up inside, causing fear, the need to run, the need to hide, running from something that is not there, always "on the run." Pinching pennies, material item temptations, just more junk, thotchkies, O but she has more than me, coveting, it is the newest most popular item on the market, just what everyone needs, not to go without it, it is a magical cure, owning it will save your life! Discounted, on sale, no one looking? God is looking, stealing even the smallest item will indeed change one's life: darting eyes, looking back as one walks, needing eyes behind your head, "But I want it!" Getting a quick fix. Needing to spend money elsewhere, everyone else has it... Stop!
God's eyes are in every place, have Him see you doing good, not evil. It is a Commandment for a reason. On the run? Needing to get out? Must get out and go? Bouncing one's legs, tapping one's foot, guilty, cannot keep one's eyes forward, looking out for God? God sees you. Let Him see you at your best, only your best.
