The eyes of the Lord are in every place…

Update on the comprehension of God’s Omniscience.
When I ask David if God sees him [name the action here], his answer depends. If the action is being kind to his sister, obeying mom, or some other positive action, he’ll answer, “Yes” (God sees him). David’s answer when he is being sinful is consistently, “No.” (”Did God see you when you disobeyed mommy?” “No.”)
I’m convinced that he understands the question. I think this is a fascinating look into a child’s ability to truly believe he can hide from God. Then again, maybe David is expressing openly what we adults live secretly– God doesn’t see me doing wrong. Food for thought.
Started working on Proverbs 15:3. The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
