God Will Take Care Of You

Sometimes it seems all too easy to worry or be anxious about something in our lives.  There are many things going on in our world today that can make us feel anxious and nervous.  Sometimes it seems all too easy to say, "Don't worry about it", but it can seem nearly impossible to do it.

The Lord Jesus tells us not to worry about our lives and He urges us to trust Him to provide our genuine needs.  The Lord is our provider of everything that we truly need.  God will take care of us no matter what dreadful thing we may encounter on our journey here on earth.

We serve a Mighty and Awesome God who is the Creator of all things.  God spoke the world and the universe into being.  God clothed the flowers of the field with such beauty and elegance.  The Lord takes care of all the animals on the earth and provides for them food and a means to find shelter.  If God takes such great care of them we can surely count on the Lord to take care of us much more so since we are made in His image.

"6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 
                                                                                                       

7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7)

The Apostle Paul reminds us that we are not to be anxious about anything, but we are to be in prayer about everything that comes at us in life.  When we feel stressed or backed into a corner we need to pray.  When we feel deserted be friends and family we need to take it to the Lord in prayer.  When we get a bad report from a doctor we need to get alone with God with our Bible and pray.  

We need to present all of our request to the Lord and trust Him with them then the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard our minds and hearts in Christ Jesus.  He will grant us His peace if we just place our faith and trust in Him.

The path may seem dark and bumpy.  Things may not get better for us here on earth, but we can rest assured that the Maker of all things holds us very close if we have made peace with Him by trusting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.  The Lord will provide us with His peace.

When we place our faith and trust in Jesus Christ we can be sure that He will indeed take care of us no matter what happens in our lives.  God is faithful.  We can trust Him.

Lord,

Thank You for taking care of us when things in our lives get hard.

Thank You Lord for being an Awesome Loving God.

I pray for everyone who is going through a difficult time to sense Your peace in their hearts and minds as they trust in You Lord Jesus.

Draw us nearer towards You.

In Jesus Name we pray,

Amen.
