Does God really care? What about the tinest intimate trivia in your life?
As I was hand-scrubbing my kitchen floor with bleach yesterday, my body reminded me that I have been off of cancer meds for maybe like 6 weeks now. I began praying as I was cleaning this deep-dark brownish-black spot that had to have been there for months and nobody noticed it under the microwave cart. I tried many cleaners and nothing worked. Bleach is my favorite so I pulled it out. As I was praying, I could hear the birds, from the propped open kitchen door, outside singing praises to our Father. I began also.....and nothing better to add to a stuborn stain than Victory in Jesus! As I sang and prayed the worship lifted my tired-spirit and rejuvenated my physical body also. Suddenly, the stain began lifting and I had hardly started using the bleach....God does care...my whole house was spotless and I did not want to lose my deposit money for this stain. I was reminded by the Lord of the many intimate details He paid attention to for others in His word. He knew people by name, knew of their infirmities, wept with them....YES, my Father cared and helped in this time of need.
Father, thank you for being so good to us. I love you Lord! |

| Yes! If He cares for the birds of the air and the flowers of the field, oh, how much more He cares for us!!! |
|
|
| He loves us more than we love him because we can never measure up to his love and grace! |

| Amen Plumbline! My thoughts exactly! He cared enough to make sure I had my Downy Simple Pleasures (Vanilla and Lavender Scent...that's what Heaven has to smell like) to wash my blankets in. I couldn't afford it this week, and lo and behold someone just gave me some! Isn't He a Good God! Thanks for the post! Be blessed! |

O victory in Jesus,
My Savior, forever.
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood;
He loved me ere I knew Him
And all my love is due Him,
He plunged me to victor-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Beneath the cleansing flood! Had to add my warbling tenor as I hold out that note! LOL |

| Chess, I love you babe....Thank God for your friendship! Stupid Stu. |

| He cares for the smallest thing - oh does He! I was head of the Agape Prayer Chapel on an Emmaus Walk when one of the women lost her purse (with her meds in it), Twenty women scoured the conference room but it was not found. I went to my knees to the Lord and said "Lord you know where it is. Direct me." And He did! It was in that conference room, on her chair...but someone had hung a sweater over her chair concealing the purse. He took me to my knees in that room and told me to look. I spotted it right away...but only because the Lord had told me where to look. |

| He even knows the number of hairs on our heads. Even though, when it comes to my hubby thats not too many. :0) Hehehehe. Thanks Cheryl... I like how you put God's word into every day modern time life. It's very inspiring. God bless. |

|
| I believe God does care about the details of our lives too. Yet when He steps in, it's because God has purposes to accomplish that transcend our own personal crises. Sometimes people lose sight of God's bigger work in what appears to be simply personal problems. You declared praises for God's intervention- perhaps your words rekindled faith in a fellow reader:) So what will that reignited faith lead to next??? |
|
|
| All the time God is good!! |
|
|
| Thank-you Lord for helpin' our Cheryl. |
|
|
| Praise the Lord...Victory is mine, says the Lord! Cheryl...i am praising God for healing your body. |
|
|
| Sometimes we forget just how much God cares for us! Although we are well aware of His mighty capabilities all of a sudden we find ourselves in awe when He demonstrates His goodness to us. Although I don't know you personally, I have been uplifted by your upbeat and joyous attitude. May God continue to richly bless you. Your sister in Christ. |

| After cleaning us spotless there is no doubt God would clean that little ole stain!! |
|

Hallelujah! I was reminded of the following poem as I read your post, Cheryl....
Maker of Heaven and Earth (All Things Bright and Beautiful)
| |
| | | All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colours,
He made their tiny wings.
The rich man in his castle,
The poor man at his gate,
God made them, high or lowly,
And ordered their estate.
The purple-headed mountain,
The river running by,
The sunset, and the morning,
That brightens up the sky;
The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water,
We gather every day;--
He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell,
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
Cecil Frances Alexander
So glad you got moved okay!

| Oh Yeah...... He cares. And I believe He smiles ....when He sees His Children leave places better, than when they got there.................... |

| Oh wonderful message, Cheryl! HE even answers wants not prayed for, like when I wanted to hear a certain song, that I didn't know by heart, that I found so beautiful. I think (don't remember if I prayed for it or not) I thought about it and ask myself what was the words to that song? All of a sudden it popped up on the gospel station not only once but twice. It still comes on and but now I know the sound of it and the lyrics, it is in this scriptures but I don't know the title. I will be getting that title soon, at GOD'S will. LOL |

As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the LORD's renown, for an everlasting sign, which will not be destroyed."
Isaiah 55. v10-13 |

Praise God for his goodness and mercy! Jesus was thinking about me when he was on the cross! I could never thank him enough! |
|
|
