Eyes Full of Grace
Psalm 1:6
“For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.”
Hi my beautiful friends,
It brings me so much peace knowing that God is watching the path I’m walking. But if I’m being real, there are times I wish He would look away. Especially when I mess up. You know those moments where you fall short, and your heart sinks with guilt? You instantly start begging for His mercy, hoping He doesn’t turn His back on you.
I was actually talking to my friend Liz about this. I told her how sometimes I feel this pressure… like I have to be perfect because I know God sees it all. And that can honestly be overwhelming. I fear the Lord, and when I look back at my past or even the things I’m still struggling with, I start to believe something bad is coming my way. Like I somehow deserve it because of the mistakes I’ve made.
But the truth is, God’s not watching me to catch me slipping. He’s watching me because He cares. He’s watching because He loves me too much to let me walk blindly. He sees every part of me. Yes, even the messy, broken, imperfect parts and He still chooses me.
Every single time.
He doesn’t watch over me to punish me. He watches to protect me.
He’s not waiting to strike me down. He’s ready to lift me up.
That doesn’t mean I take His grace lightly. I still want to live in a way that honors Him. I still want to grow, to heal, to be more like Jesus. But I also have to remind myself that I’m not going to get it right every time. And that’s okay. He’s not expecting perfection. He just wants my heart.
So I’m actually thankful He sees it all. Because even when I stumble, I know He’s guiding me back.
Even when I fall, He’s covering me with grace.
And even when I feel unworthy, He reminds me that I’m still His.
So if you're reading this and you've been feeling like you’ve messed up too much, remember this:
God still sees you, and He’s not done with you.
Start today by walking with Him, not hiding from Him. Let His love lead you.
Even in your weakness, He’s still watching
but it’s with eyes full of grace, not judgment.
You don’t have to be perfect.
You just have to be willing.
Willing to show up. Willing to repent. Willing to keep going.
He sees your heart. And that’s more than enough.
