He Cares

Sometimes it feels like everything is falling apart. There is sickness and suffering. The bills are piling up and the cars are falling to pieces. Nothing in this world seems to be right at all.

We wonder how much more we can take. We can't take it, not on our own.

Jesus already knows what we are going through but He wants us to tell Him. He loves us so much and He wants us to turn our cares over to Him. He can handle whatever it may be.

Why don't we turn it all over to Jesus? Pride mostly. We get caught up in the pride of self and start thinking that we can handle it all ourselves. We usually end up in a worse mess. Depressed, angry and confused.

1 Peter 5:6-7

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He might exalt you in due time:
Cast all your care upon Him; for He careth for you.

Tell God what's bothering you. Turn it over to Him, He's got the answer. No, it's not always when or what we want it to be but it is always what's best. We are not always going to understand, God knows that too. It's okay to tell Him when we don't understand. He loves us and cares for us enough that He will see us through whatever it is, we just have to let Him.
