THE ONE TWO WATCH
THE ONE TWO WATCH

The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous. - 1 Peter 2:12

It was a 7th grade basketball game, and our team was getting trounced. As I watch my running up and down the court, trying his hardest to get his first junior high point on the hardwood, the score didn’t matter that much.

Like all the other parents who had come out on a cold January day to sit on the hard benches and watch a less-than-stellar game, I was there for one reason ‒ love. Steve had my attention because I care for him, love him, and want to encourage him. Win or lose, that was my , and everything he did out there was important. My eyes were on him.

As I reflected on my concern for Steve, I began to see a tiny glimpse of what God’s love means to us. God keeps His eye on us at all times. He’s observing, loving, and encouraging us in life’s struggles. He’s there, He cares. Although He has million of to observe, His gaze doesn’t wander (1 Peter 3:12 ).

If life seems frightening, if the opposition seems tough, if it appears that you are losing, remember that God is watching. In His loving compassion, He wants to help. To Him, you are the one to watch. ‒ JDB
