GOD DOES INDEED CARE

 










GOD DOES INDEED CARE


For the umpteenth time recently

We had an INTERNATIONAL TRAGEDY

Due to terrorism=this time in France


WHEN things like this happen

Or when things go wrong

In your personal life


Does it ever cause you to ask-

WHERE IS GOD?

Or does God even care?


“Why-O Lord-

do you stand aloof?

Why hide in times of distress?” Psalm 10:1


GOD made Adam and Eve

FREE of sin

But with free will


They CHOSE sin over the righteous works

Of God

Nevertheless he gave them another chance


And he gives us-the rest of us human beings

CHANCE AFTER CHANCE

To get it right


God LOVES us infinitely

And he really does indeed

CARE FOR US


“Lord-what are human beings-

That you care for them


Mere mortals

That you think of them?” Psalm 144:3


“The RIGHTEOUS care about

JUSTICE for the poor


But the wicked

Have no such concern” Proverbs 29:7


And who of us

Is more righteous than God

(No one)


He(God) really does

Indeed CARE

And he LOVES US

Until our last breath


When I see world suffering

Like that of which

Is currently going on


And when I face PERSONAL SUFFERING

(Health-money-and relationship problems)

And FEEL a sense of hopelessness


Because of ALL the hatred and violence

In the world


I wonder WHERE God is

I wonder if God really

Does care


But it's NOT GOD

Who is indifferent and violent

In this world


It's us


God made you and me

OUT OF LOVE


And we were PUT here

To make a POSITIVE difference

In this world


GOD IS RIGHTEOUS

And we were put here

To LIVE LIVES of hope-

LIVES of FAITH-

And lives of love and kindness


NOT the desperate violent lives

MANY of us are living today


“SURELY-Lord

You BLESS the righteous


You surround them

With your favor

As with a shield” Psalm 5:12


“The wages of the righteous

IS LIFE


But the earnings of the wicked

ARE sin and death” Proverbs 10:16


GOD REALLY DOES CARE!


And the God I know

Is all-LOVING


GOOD WILL WIN in the end

In this world


I know that

Just as surely as I know

That Jesus Christ TRIUMPHED over the grave


God CARES & LOVES

He knows no other way
