God Can't Take His Eyes Off Of Me!
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Feb 13, 2022 (message contributor)
There were 2 boys playing one day when they got bored. Little Johnny turned to his buddy, Billy, and said, "You know something, I'm bored. Let's go to the store and steal some candy!"
Billy says: "Oh no! I can't do that! God is watching me!“
Little Johnny replies: "You mean to tell me that you believe there is a God up there watching everything you do, so that one day He can punish you?“
Billy thinks about it and says: "No, Johnny, I am telling you that I believe there is a God up there that loves me so much, that just He can't take his eyes off me!"
