Have you ever found yourself crying out to the Lord with your questions and concerns and saying the following to Him? “Lord, I can’t do this. I don’t see how I can make it. This is too much for me. I don’t know what’s going to happen. There’s just no answer.”
And then you sit down and try to figure out (on your own) what you can do with the resources you have, or try to make a decision to take you in the right direction, but you’re really at the end of your rope. However, unexpectedly, you receive a phone call or you get a letter in the mail with an offer to help, or perhaps you receive an unexpected check and you finally realize God has been working in your life all along. When you felt all hope was gone, you realize God really does care for you and all things are working together for good in your life. He won’t fail you.
Oh, how we need to remember what an awesome God we have. And when hard times come let’s not fear or despair of life, but trust the One who truly cares for us. Do you remember the hymn “God Will Take Care of You,” by Civilla W. Stillman Martin?
(V.1) Be not dismayed whate’er betide, God will take care of you; Beneath His wings of love abide, God will take care of you. (V.3) All you may need He will provide, God will take care of you; Nothing you ask will be denied, God will take care of you. (V.4) No matter what may be the test, God will take care of you; Lean, weary one, upon His breast, God will take care of you. (Chorus) God will take care of you, Thru ev’ry day, o’er all the way; He will take care of you, God will take care of you.
Oh, yes, we have questions – but JESUS is always the answer!
