"Look at the birds of the air, they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"
~Matthew 6:26
My Father cares for me.
God is always watching out for us. He cares about us more than we even know. At times, when we are faced with a difficult decision, it can feel like God doesn't care. We wonder if God cares so much then why aren't we just immediately rescued from our problems?
I've realized that God's timing is always perfect. Even though I stress and worry a ton when I get nervous; ultimately, God has a plan. He has plans for our lives, even when we don't know them ourselves.
God is constantly showing he cares through everything he provides us with. Oftentimes we can take for granted the signs that show us he cares. I saw something on line recently that really made me think about everything I take for granted and don't thank him for. It said "What if today you only woke up with the things you thanked God for yesterday?"
He believes in us. He provides for us. He loves us. We are like a precious jewel in his eyes, valuable in every way. Think about that for a second. The creator of the UNIVERSE finds you valuable!
From today's verse I get several things. One, God is our heavenly father and he never stops caring for our needs (even when we think he doesn't care). Two, alot of the time we take for granted his blessings. Every one of those blessings is a sign of how he cares for us. And three, we are valuable to him. No matter what we do we are still valuable and he still cares.
So next time i'm stressed here's what i'm going to try and do; thank God for the blessings I have in my life. I may not know why whatever is happening is happening, but I know God cares for me and he has laid out a plan for me because I am valuable to him.
