For your ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all your paths. – Proverbs 5:21 (NIV)

Today’s commentary by Dave Whitehead, Author of Making Sense of the Bible

There is no such thing as hidden sin. God not only sees what we do, but He sees why we do it! When we realize that nothing escapes God’s view, the need to cry out for mercy becomes real, for we need a Savior. Without that realization, we are still held captive to our sin, for we are not aware of our true need. Jesus Christ came to set captives free, but the chains that come off are the ones that we are willing to admit that we have.
