His Loving Care

"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you."
 (I Peter 5:7, NLT)

God cares about everything that touches your life and He knows things about you that no one else knows. He wants to help you with anything that you may face. The Bible says that He is touched by the feelings of our infirmities. In other words, if it affects our life, it affects Him.

The PROBLEM? We are so bad to keep our problems and worries to ourselves and not allow Him to help us. We don't bring them to Him and allow Him to help us. He never said we would never have problems when we get saved, but He did promise He would never leave us alone to carry our stuff by ourselves.

He really cares about every detail of our lives. He is that kind of heavenly Father. He is an intimate God. He wants to be included in the daily activities and decisions of your life. He wants to be the answer to your problem. He wants to be your strength in time of weakness. He wants to give you comfort for your sorrow. He wants to give you wisdom for the decisions you have to make each day.

Will you allow Him to carry your burdens? You have to give them to Him. Cast them upon Him. He wants you to. My challenge for you today is to take a card or piece of paper and write all of your worries on. Then take that paper and take them to the Lord in prayer. Give each one to God in your prayer time and then write today's scripture on the back of the paper to remind you of God's love.
