“Can God see us in our house?” asked three-year-old David as he looked at the star-filled sky above him. His grandmother had just reminded him of his Sunday school memory verse—”Thou God seest me” (
Genesis 16:13
13
And she called the name of the Lord that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me? (Genesis 16:13)
).
“Yes, He can see us in the house,” said Grandmother. “And He can even see us at night.”
“But we close the curtains on our windows at night,” was David’s reply.
David’s grandmother patiently explained how God can see everything we do, He can hear everything we say, and He knows everything we think. So there is no hiding from Him. Children are not the only ones who think it is possible to hide from God. Teens and grown-ups both sometimes think this way about their sins. But God has said, “There is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed [uncovered]; neither hid, that shall not be known” (
Luke 12:2
2
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. (Luke 12:2)
). God does not want us to try to hide from Him but to admit our sins to Him. “He that [covers] his sins shall not prosper: but whoso [confesses] and [forsakes] them shall have mercy” (
Proverbs 28:13
13
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. (Proverbs 28:13)
).
