He Cannot Love You More

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Philippians 4:6

The Lord cares for His children!

He knows our
needs—and has promised to supply them.
He knows our foes—and will deliver us from them.
He knows our fears—and will make us ashamed of them.

All creatures and things are in His hand, and at His disposal; all circumstances are under His absolute control. He . . .
directs the angel,
feeds the sparrow,
curbs the devil, and
manages the tempest!

He is your Father—and His love to you is infinite. You are His delight—His dear child. Will He neglect you? Impossible! Cast then your cares upon Him. Tell out all your desires, fears, and troubles to Him; let Him know everything; keep nothing back. And then in the confidence of faith, expect Him to fulfill His Word, and act a Parent's part.

Bless Him for all He has given, for all He has promised. Plead with Him for all you may need. But never for one moment, or under any circumstances, distrust Him! He cannot love you more! He is your ever present help. He will rejoice over you to do you good, with His whole heart, and with His whole soul.(By James Smith, 1857)

"Cast all your care upon Him, because He cares about you!" 1 Peter 5:7

What is True Love?

Here is a challenge I got from a "Love Dare" application for my I-Phone. Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 substituting your name for the words "love" and "it". By the way, despite being a popular passage for weddings, it is not intended simply for married couples. It applies to anybody desiring to exhibit love, whether it be toward a spouse, family member or fellow neighbor. Remember, according to Jesus, love is not an option. Pray the Lord would make true love a reality in you life.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
"4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant
5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
