Message
A songwriter answered the question posed by our topic thus:
O yes, He cares, I know He cares!
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary, the long night dreary,
I know my Saviour cares.
Life is filled with ups and downs that make some children to think whether God really cares about them. We need to really understand that we cannot avoid the disappointment or steer our lives around hurts along the way. But it helps when someone understands what we are going through.
If there was someone who could have had easy ride through life, it was Jesus. He has the power to calm a storm at sea and make enough food to feed thousands. He could heal any sickness, and even escape death (Luke 4:28-30). Yet Jesus chose to go without food for forty days and left home even though He had nowhere to sleep (Luke 9:58). He was born in a smelly stable, and was buried in a tomb that did not belong to Him.
Therefore, Jesus and our Father in heaven feel your pain too. Do not be sad or disappointed in any situation you find yourself. Read God’s promises, believe it and pray it into your situation. Everything will be alright. Always remember that God cares
