God Cares About Little Things

God Cares About Little Things

"And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered."
Matthew 10:30

The other day I was talking to a man on our mail route about a problem he was having, and told him I would be praying for him, when he said, "God has much more important things to worry about than my little problems." I assured him that nothing was too small to present to God, as He wanted us to always come to Him with all our problems, not just the big ones. On the way back home, I thought about his response, and if others think that God is too busy, or doesn't want to hear about the little problems and issues we deal with each day. When we look at the Bible we find scriptures that tell us that God is interested in all the details of our lives, as He even knows the number of hairs on our heads. In the book of Psalm, God counts the stars and calls them all by name. In the book of Mark we see Jesus, in the midst of a huge crowd, interested in the woman who was bleeding, as she only "touched his cloak", and He noticed her. Scripture tells us that God cares about all things, and is not a God that loves us from afar. He is a God who cares about the details of our lives. Nothing is too small to present to Him, and nothing escapes His attention. I would encourage each of you to go to God with all the little things in your life, not just the big things. God is concerned with the details of your life, even the small issues that may be causing you problems. God is a personal God, and cares about you and loves you. He loves you so much that He gave His only son to suffer and die on the cross so that you can be saved and have an eternal life.
