God Cares About You
"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." 1 Peter 5:7 NLT
Charles Weigle was an itinerant evangelist who enjoyed traveling and preaching, despite the rigors of the road. His wife, however, grew disillusioned with her frequently absent husband. One day Charles returned home to find this note: "Charlie, I've been a fool. I've done without a lot of things...from here on out, I'm getting all I can out of what the world owes me. I know you will continue to be a fool for Jesus, but for me, it's goodbye!' He was stunned, and depression swept over him like a tidal wave. One day, sitting on the porch of his cottage, he contemplated suicide. A voice within him whispered, "Your ministry is finished. No one cares." But another voice pierced through the gloom: "Charlie, I haven't forgotten you; I care for you." Instantly Charles was on his knees, rededicating his life to Christ. Later he wrote the words of one of the most beloved of all gospel songs: "I would love to tell you what I think of Jesus, since I found in Him a friend so strong and true; I would tell you how He changed my life completely, He did something that no other friend could do. No one ever cared for me like Jesus, there's no other friend so kind as He; no one else could take the sin and darkness from me, o how much He cared for me." Have the responsibilities you carry brought you to a breaking point? Is the heartache more than you can bear? The word for you today is--"Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you."
