Proverbs: Day 15

Proverbs 15


15:3
The eyes of the Lord are in every place,
keeping watch on the evil and the good.


Within Christian theology, there is a latin phrase that helps explain the christian life; Coram Deo.

Coram Deo - living in the presence of, or before the face of, God.

R.C. Sproul writes that, "To live coram Deo is to live one’s entire life in the presence of God, under the authority of God, to the glory of God. To live in the presence of God is to understand that whatever we are doing and wherever we are doing it, we are acting under the gaze of God. God is omnipresent. There is no place so remote that we can escape His penetrating gaze."

Proverbs 15:3 speaks to this reality. May we live in light of this truth!
