How often do we ask this question; Does Jesus Care?
When we are going through situations that just about kill us and overwhelm us to the point of death, we will often ask this question; Does Jesus Care?
Let’s face it, there are times when we feel He is nowhere to be found no matter how much we pray. I have learned that He is very near at these times, if we “will be still and know that I am God.”
We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose. Romans 8:28
Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
Too deeply for mirth and song?
When the burdens press
And the cares distress
And the way grows weary and long?
Oh, yes, He cares, I know He cares (His heart)
His heart is touched with my grief
When the days are weary
The long night dreary
I know my Savior cares
Does Jesus care when my way is dark
With a nameless dread and fear?
And as the daylight fades
Into deep dark shades
Does He care enough to be near?
Does Jesus care
When I've tried and failed
To resist some temptation strong?
When for my deep grief there's no relief
Though the tears flow all the day long
Does Jesus care when I've said, “Goodbye”
To the dearest on earth to me
And my sad heart aches
Till it nearly breaks
Is it aught to Him? Does He see?
