2 Kings 1:1-18; Jeremiah 34:1-22; Hebrews 5:11-6:20

Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7, NKJV

Sometimes when I read about the Israelities, I think how foolish they were. But isn’t that also me? When things are going well, I congratulate myself on the job I’m doing. When things are rough, I gripe and complain and wonder where God is. Growth or progress in the Christian life is not achieved by ease and comfort. It comes from trials, heartache, pain and sorrow. God is always faithful; I am the one that falters. Find joy in casting all your care on Him today. —Debbie Douglas

Be not dismayed what e’er betide,
God will take care of you.
Beneath His wings of love abide,
God will take care of you. —C. D. Martin
