The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
—Psalm 34:15 (KJV)
We are righteous because of God's mercy and grace (Ephesians 2:1-10). These were given to us in Jesus! We received them because of our faith in him. We are remembered because of God's faithfulness. We are heard because of God's lovingkindness. We are blessed because God is good. Let's choose to live in righteous ways, seeking to live up to who Christ has declared us to be (Colossians 1:22). As we do, let's know that God, our loving Father, keeps us in his sight and watches over us with loving care.
Thank you, Father, for seeing our needs, hearing our cries, answering our prayers, and coming down to save, comfort, and bless us with your grace. In Jesus' name, we thank you. Amen.
