The tender eyes of God perpetually see us. He never
stops noticing. Why, then, do we think at times, that
God has forgotten us, or has left us, or doesn't really
care about us? We find ourselves in circumstances of
life that are quite bad and intolerable. Our thoughts
seem to naturally begin thinking those thoughts. Have
we forgotten that we live in a cursed world and that
Jesus, Himself, told us we would have tribulation in
this world. Have we forgotten that He said He would
never leave us or forsake us? In our tribulation, He is
right there with us, and never taking His eyes off us. If
we find ourselves here, if we stir our faith and fully trust
him with our lives, we will know He sees our need and He
is with us.
Read 2 Chronicles 16:9
"For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth
to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed
to Him........." (NIV)
"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the
whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them
whose heart is perfect toward him....." (KJV)

Probably because most of us have little or no faith and often take our eyes off of the Lord. Like Peter did when he attempted to walk to Jesus on the water.
