OUR SAVIOUR CARES

"And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down. And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost."

Mark 15:36, 37
King James Version

Rev. Frank E. Graeff wrote the heart touching hymn "Does Jesus Care". I'm so glad the words in this hymn are true.

"Does Jesus care when my heart is pained Too deeply for mirth or song, As the burdens press, And the cares distress, And the way grows weary and long?

O yes, He cares, I know He cares, His heart is touched with my grief; When the days are weary, The long night dreary, I know my Savior cares."

Yes, Jesus cares when our heart is breaking. When He was here on earth on His mission, people rejected Him. Our Saviour knows how it hurts when people say hateful words and do things that hurt us.

Jesus will comfort you if you only tell Him that you are hurting. Jesus doesn't want us to be sad. We read in the Bible. "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10)

Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us so much You gave Your beloved Son to die on the cross for our sins so we can be saved. I pray for all who are lonely and discouraged and feel like going to bed and staying there.
Please comfort and encourage them as You have done for me so many times.

I pray for every man, every woman, every boy and every girl that has never given their heart and life to Jesus. May today be the day they invite Jesus into their heart.

I love You, Heavenly Father. I love You, Jesus. I love You, Holy Spirit. Thank You for being a protective and loving Father. In Jesus' Name, I praY. Amen.
