DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 21-22; Isaiah 61:1-11; Romans 6:1-14

The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. Psalm 34:15
I have surely seen the affliction of my people…and have heard their cry…for I know their sorrows. Exodus 3:7

These human capabilities attributed to our great God are to encourage us to remember that we have a caring God. We can see and hear of needs around us, but never be moved in heart to help. This is not so with our heavenly Father—the one Who cares for His own very deeply. Learn to cast all your care on Him and watch for His deliverance. —Wm. H. Gustafson

What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry, everything to Him in prayer. —J. Scriven
