“He Cares For You.”
Every once in a while something may
happen to make us wonder whether anyone really is concerned about us or not. Do
we mean anything to anyone? Or are we just a number on a social security card,
or credit card, or on a license plate?
It should hardly be necessary for
Peter to write as he does for our title today: “He cares for you.” Isn’t it
quite apparent from personal experience? When day after day God supplies, not
only what we need, but far more. We find joy in our work and God crowns our
labor with a measure of success. We arise refreshed in the morning and we
return home safely in the evening. Doesn’t all of this say simply but
eloquently: “He cares for you.” When we look back over life, we can see how God
has watched over us and brought us to this very hour. Maybe we can see how God
has used even times of sorrow or trouble to bring about good for our lives.
Above all these things, God has
preserved His word for us. In His word, we learn about God sending His Son to
be our Savior. On Calvary’s cross, more than anywhere else, we see God’s
matchless love for us, a love that forgives, a love that restores us to His
family.
No, it should not have been necessary
for Peter to write these words. But that we might not doubt it even in our
darkest hour, God had him say it once more: “He cares for you.”
