Your Problems Matter to God


Thank God! He deserves your thanks. His love never quits. Psalm 136:1 The Message

If I know that one of the privileges of fatherhood is to comfort, then why am I so reluctant to let my heavenly Father comfort me?

Why do I think he wouldn’t care about my problems? (“They are puny compared to starving people in India.”)

Why do I think he is too busy for me?

Go to Him

 “God is our protection and our strength. He always helps in times of trouble.”  Psalm 46:1-2
Ever feel as if you need to get away? So did Jesus. (Mark 1:35)

Ever have so many demands that you can’t stop for lunch? He can relate. (Mark 6:31) . . .

Do your friends ever let you down? When Christ needed help, his friends dozed off. (Matthew 26:40) . . .

When you turn to him for help, he runs to you to help. Why? He knows how you feel. He’s been there . . So go to him.


Don’t Miss the Messiah

Happy are the people…who walk, O Lord, in the light of your countenance.  Psalm 89:15

Jesus didn’t fit the Jews’ notion of a Messiah, and so, rather than change their notion, they dismissed him…

They expected lights and kings and chariots from heaven.  What they got was sandals and sermons and a Galilean accent.

And so, some missed him.  And so, some miss him still. -  By Max Lucado
