Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you

(1 Peter 5:7 NIV).

The life of a Christian is filled with tests and trials, as the scripture says, “The righteous person may have many troubles…” (Psalm 34:19 NIV). During these times of trouble, one may doubt if God truly cares. However, there are things we can remind ourselves of to believe at all times that God cares despite the troubles we face.

Many of the cares we have in this world arise from desires for certain things that we want. When these things are not met, it fills our hearts with doubts. However, considering what was written in Romans 8:32, “He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?”, we would be assured that there must be a good reason He might not grant our desires at a specific time.

Years ago, I was praying to God concerning a certain desire I had then. He responded by saying to me that it’s not time for what I was requesting, and that if He should grant my request, it would not help me. So, we see that God refusing to grant our heart’s desire at our own time is actually an act of love and not the opposite.

Jesus Christ made a statement that revealed how much God cares for His children. He said, “…the very hairs of your head are all numbered…” (Luke 12:7 NIV). If He took time to number our hair, He knows about other areas of our lives, for He truly cares.

Lastly, knowing the reason God allows us to be tried will help us to be encouraged and thank Him for them instead of doubting. God allows trials to mature us (James 1:3), to prove us (e.g., Job), and to enable us to have fellowship with the sufferings of Christ, which affirms that we have been chosen to be glorified together with Him (Romans 8:17, 2 Timothy 2:12).

My brothers and sisters, God cares for you. Live your life being fully assured of this.

Prayer Point:

Let’s thank God for His word today. Let’s ask Him to help believers develop the faith that would enable us to believe that He cares for us at all times.
