There was a man once who was I in the habit of stealing from his neighbors. One day he took his little boy with him into a cornfield to steal some of the corn. He first looked all around carefully to make sure no one was looking. He was about to start filling his bag when the little fellow spoke up. “Daddy,” he said, “you didn’t look everywhere.”
“Yes, I did,” his father said. “Where didn’t I look?”
“You didn’t look up!” was the little boy’s reply.
Like an arrow from God, those words went to the father’s heart. He dropped the corn, and without a word he hastily left the cornfield.
Dear boys and girls, when tempted to do evil, just remember that God is looking down. He sees all that we do and He hears all that we say; and not only that, but he knows all what we think too.
