God Cares For You!

We understand from Scriptures that the best solution available to believers in times of difficulty, worry or anxiety is to cast our problems on Jesus, knowing that He cares for us. We have an express and authoritative assurance from God to cast all our burdens to Him only. This means that we need not get worried over anything anymore but to leave all our loads of burden on God. Feeling weary is a normal experience of life but thankfully, there is also One who offers to carry it for us. God is always willing to help men, but men do not always avail themselves to God’s unfailing ability to help like no other can.

Life can be full of challenges at times however, no matter what we face, we can be rest assured that God is always with us. Psalm 55:22 says “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.” When David was being threatened by his enemies, he processed his feelings and he found a way to rest in his troubled thoughts by casting his burden on the Lord. Some have been crushed under their burden because they prefer to bear their burdens all by themselves by worrying rather than handing them over to God. Jesus asked an interesting question about worry: “Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” (Matthew 6:27). Perhaps this can help us rethink our tendency to worry, because it suggests that it doesn’t help the situation we’re concerned about. Many rather than bring their burdens to God, they rush to the arm of flesh who themselves need assistance. God supports us if we dare to release our problems to Him. It is written in Philippians 4:6-7 “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” No matter what we go through, never forget that the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous and His ears are open to their cry. We don’t have to take charge of every situation and try to craft the outcome that’s exhausting! God is in control of every aspect of our lives. So, instead of trying to do everything in our own effort, we can find rest in God.

Beloved, irrespective of the problem and difficulty you find yourself in, accept this invitation and come to Jesus today. Cast your burden on Him in prayer, and you will experience the power of His love like never before. Today, release that burden of worry including coronavirus, sickness, unpaid rent, mortgages, debt or wayward child and see what He will do. When you stop worrying, you start winning! You win because God cares for you and will never fail you. When it feels like time to worry, trust and have confidence in Him knowing that He cares for you. No one has come to the Lord with their burden and return the same(Luke 8:43–48). There is no greater burden-bearer than then the Lord Jesus Christ! He wants to help you carry any load you are struggling with. Here is His call to you today, in Matthew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”. The next time you’re facing a problem, give it to God and let Him be the One who’s concerned about it, for He has volunteered for the job and you can trust Him to do it well. Rely on God and let the whole world know He is your sufficiency.
