He who cares

God knows and numbers the stars,
yet He is concerned about you and me,
even though we're broken by sin.
He bings our shattered hearts with sensitivity and kindness,
and He brings healing into the depths of our souls.
The greatness of His heart. His strength is measure of His love.
He is a tender and mighty God.

The psalmist tell us that God "counts the number of stars"
and even "Calls them by name" (psalm147:4)
Would He care for the stars that are mere matter
and not care for us, Who bare His image?
Of course not. He knows about our lonely struggles,
and He cares. It is His business to care.

God, in the form of His Son Jesus,
was subject to all our passions(Hebrews 2:18).
He understands and does not scold or condemn
when we fall short and fail. He leans down and
listens to our cries for help. He gently corrects us.
He heals through time and with great skill.

The stars will fall from the sky someday.
They are not God's major concer--YOU ARE!
He "is able to keep you from stumbling and
to present you faultless before the presence
of His glory with exceeding joy" (Jude 1:24)
And He will do it!

Because God Cares for us,
We can leave our cares with HIM.

Thats todays quiet time....
How wonderful that, Someone up there cares.
Thank God that, though we are all busy,
we feel tired, we feel horrible,
He is there to listen, to care.
When we stumble, He will pick us up.

Matthew 11:28-29
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you
and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls.
