THEY'RE WATCHING
Today's reading: Exodus 29-32
"When Moses saw that Aaron had let the people get completely out of control--and much to the amusement of their enemies--he stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, All of you who are on the Lord's side, come over here and join me. And all the Levites came." Exodus 32:25-26 NLT
A huge slip-up on the Israelites' behalf. A big mistake. A sin.
And who was there to see it? Their enemies. The ones they would one day hope to win over to God. The same folks who were doubting all this God-talk, wondering about this Promised Land the 'visitors' kept referring to and undoubtedly scratched their heads over the ceremonies and lifestyles.
They saw the whole fiasco.
Your enemies will be watching you today, too.
Your un-churched co-workers will be discreetly listening to each and every conversation you participate in. Your unsaved loved ones will be watching your every reaction to life. Your neighbors will be keeping an eye on your yard, overhearing you yell at the kids and studying how you deal with a car that won't start or a dog that gets in your trash can--again.
What will they see?
Go ahead and decide right now how you're going to react, what you're going to say and what you might be caught doing--because they're watching!
