Read : Philippians 4: 6-7

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” - I Peter 5: 7

Some Christians say that God cares so much for us that He would protect us and would never allow any hurt or heartache to touch us. They reason, “God would go to any length to release us from pain if we really trusted in Him.” The Bible reveals in a crystal clear way that God allows suffering to His children, but it does not mean He no longer cares. God cared about Paul. He told him in his prison cell, “Take courage! As you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome.” (Acts 23:11) With that, definitely Paul would have cast all anxiety on the Lord. Yet, he remained in custody for at least two years before the Lord appeared to him. Did God stop caring for Paul in those two years? Of course not. God answered His servant’s prayer by giving him the kind of peace that allowed him to write, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.” (Philippians 4: 12) God cared for John when he was exiled in a lonely island Patmos. God cared for James who had to be beheaded by Herod for his testimony.

Dear friends, God’s care for us goes deeper than our comfort zones. He cares for our souls. We may undergo hardships, insults, loneliness, sickness, but in the midst of these, we can experience peace and contentment which are the results of God’s care for us. So let us not lose heart but grab hold of the truth that God cares for us in all situations, at all times. He never will abandon us at any cost.
