21 For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and he ponders all his paths.22 The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.23 He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.
Here we are reminded that God is all seeing. Not in the way Santa Claus is, comparing you to the other children between Thanksgiving and Christmas. God holds us to the standard of perfection, anything less is beneath him. Luckily he is willing to live the life we were supposed to live, in form of Jesus. Like Santa, God's desire for our purity is for our benefit. Sinning is not freedom, it's slavery. It's not life, it's death. And of course, by following him, we get a pretty sweet gift.
