The Lord Cares For Us

Sometimes the world can seem so cold, dark, and unfriendly.  There are times when we wonder if anyone truly cares for us.  Many people just go through life unnoticed and just existing.  We can rest assure that someone does indeed care for us and there is someone that does notice us.  The One who cares for us and notices all that we do is God.

The Lord cares for us and He showers us with blessings each and everyday.  The Lord allowed us to awake this morning.  He provides us with a roof over our heads and food to eat.  The Lord provides for us in many other ways too.  He is the One that supplies us what we truly need.  God is so very good to us and He cares about us.

God loves us so very much and He demonstrated that by sending His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, to this earth where He lived a perfect sinless life and died on the Cross for our sins.  We have all sinned against a Holy God.  We can't obtain forgiveness of our sins by being good or doing good things.  There is no one that does good according the Scriptures.  We have all fallen short of God's high standards.  There is not one of us that is good enough on his or her own to earn forgiveness and eternal life in Heaven.

We have all sinned and we are all deserving of being placed into a literal hell outside the presence of God for all eternity.  God doesn't want anyone to perish and go to hell so He is very patient with us.  It is the Lord's desire that we all come to repentance of our sins and receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and be saved.

There is only one name under Heaven in which we must be saved by and that is the name of Jesus Christ.  When we come to faith in Christ the Holy Spirit comes to indwell us.  The Holy Spirit will help us understand God's Word, the Bible, and He will help us to apply the Word to our hearts and lives.

When we have the Holy Spirit in us we are never truly alone no matter if everyone we know abandons us for one reason or another.  The Lord will never leave us nor will He ever forsake us if we are trusting in Him.

Everything seems to be changing in our world at an amazing rate, but thankfully God never changes and nothing catches Him off guard.  We need to praise the Lord and give Him thanks for all that He has done for us and all that He is working out on our behalf.

Let's lift up our eyes to the Lord when life seems hard and lonely.  Let's trust the Lord more and keep running the race that He has set us on.


Lord,
Thank You for caring for us and loving us. 
Help us to love You more.
Help us to also love those You put in our path.
Empower us through the Holy Spirit to live for You.
Come Soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name I pray,
Amen.
