Jesus Cares

It may surprise some to think about God being a caring God. He is often portrayed as a God of wrath and judgment. 

This is one side of His character—He hates sin but loves the sinner. He is also a God of love, compassion and intimacy, One who cares.

Mark 6:34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

When Jesus looked at that crowd He saw every broken heart, every physical ailment, every emotional need, and every spiritual problem. 

He saw the crippled child. He saw the abused wife, the depressed father, and the rebellious teenager. 

I praise the Lord that our God sees everything that happens in this universe and can still focus on the individual. 

He cares about you and the needs in your life. Humble yourself. Come to Him and find help. He cares. Worship Him. 

1 Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
