No secrets...not even in Sin City
Have you seen the latest 60 million dollar advertising promo for the city of Las Vegas?
"What happens here stays here. Only Vegas."
Don't believe it.
"He sees you when you're sleeping;
He knows when you're awake;
He knows if you've been bad or good;
In Nevada -- or any other state!"
Come on...even Martha and the Vandellas know there's "nowhere to run, nowhere to hide."
"Lord, you have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my every thought when far away.
You chart the path ahead of me
and tell me where to stop and rest.
Every moment you know where I am.
You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, Lord.
You both precede and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to know!
I can never escape from your spirit!
I can never get away from your presence!
If I go up to heaven, you are there;
if I go down to the place of the dead, you are there.
If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
even there your hand will guide me,
and your strength will support me.
I could ask the darkness to hide me
and the light around me to become night-
but even in darkness I cannot hide from you."
Psalm 139:1-12
"The night has a thousand eyes..."
"What happens here stays here. Only Vegas."
Don't believe it.
"He sees you when you're sleeping;
He knows when you're awake;
He knows if you've been bad or good;
In Nevada -- or any other state!"
