, I was thinking this morning as I was reading Luke how many Christians make the mistake of thinking that God is too busy taking care of the "big things" to be interested in the little problems they are facing. Are you one of them? It may be your child's bed-wetting habit, a quarrel with a friend or some office space you have to get. No matter how trivial it sounds, if it troubles you, then God wants to take care of it!
God wants to take care of every area of your life, even the smallest detail. He loves you so much that He knows the number of hairs you have on your head. And if your loving heavenly Father knows and is interested in the small details of your life, then you don't have to overcome any problem on your own.
When my daughter Alyssa was small, my wife Rita and I decided to bring her to Disneyland. Knowing that it was her first encounter with Disneyland and that she could be frightened by unexpected shocks, I decided to check out one of the theater productions which I had planned to bring her to, before I took her to watch it.
My mind was on Alyssa all the time. I was thinking, "Is this too frightening for her? Will she like the mechanical singing bear? Is the place too dark for her?"
, your heavenly Father cares for you in the same way as He lays out His plans for you. You are on His heart all the time as He carefully considers and makes plans for every aspect of your life, both big and small. And the very thought of you puts a smile on His face because He knows that the plans He has for you are plans to bless you. (Jeremiah 29:11)
So no matter what problems you are facing right now, you can rest in His love for you. There is no problem that is too insignificant for Him to handle. He is not just God Almighty, He is also your heavenly Father who loves you!
A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
Father, thank You that you are concerned about the small details of my life. Today, cause me to relax in you. Thank you for loving me so much that you want my best. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
