FMF: Care

Do you ever feel like no one cares?

The friend who forgets to return your call….

The kids who pour milk all over the floor you just mopped….

Your husband….

Your pastor….

All the people who you’d like to just notice….

Notice that you’re tired.

Notice that you’re trying.

Notice that you need to talk to someone older than 18.

But they don’t because….

They are tired.

They are trying.

They need someone to talk to, too.

But it is lonely being the bearer of all your burdens, isn’t it?

It is lonely to resort to adult conversations with yourself.

It is exhausting to feel there is simply no rest.

But it’s also a lie.

There is someone else who can carry the weight your shoulders sag beneath.

There is someone else who will always listen…and speak…to you.

There is rest because He promises it.

So, when it feeels like no one else cares for you, remember:

He does.

Always.

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7)
