Psalm 139:17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!  How great is the sum of them!  18 If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand;  When I awake, I am still with You.

The interesting thing about these continual thoughts regarding you is that they are not bad thoughts.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

God really cares about you!  His desire is your overall well-being and continual connection with Him.

3 John 2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

For this to manifest in our daily lives, we must humble ourselves to God by trusting Him in all things, even the things most precious to us.

1 Peter 5:6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

God wants to help you with His mighty hand of power.  But it requires that you let Him have what troubles you and that you rely on His help instead of thinking you can be the answer and solution.

My solutions often interfere with His.  They conflict with His approach and process.  The best ideas my flesh can drum up for solutions to the things that trouble me run contrary to His ways of handling things.  That is why humbling myself under His mighty hand is so important.  It can be a real challenge actually to throw my cares onto Him.  But it is what will serve me best and honor Him best.  He loves us so much that He wants to take our cares from us and handle them for us.

Many get confused because they want God to act like a thief and snatch their cares from them.  But God is not a thief, and He does not snatch from us the things we desire to keep.  He waits for us to humble ourselves and give Him what troubles us.  We need to want it gone so badly that we throw it onto Him!  Sadly, there have been times that I struggled to let something that troubled me go and thought wrongly that God didn’t care because it was still with me.  He repeatedly showed me how it remained because I would not let it go and throw it onto Him.  I had to humble myself to gain what He was already willing to do on my behalf, and humbling myself meant letting go of what I was hanging onto and throwing it onto Him with no attachments.  His mighty hand was ready to act but could not until I humbled myself and got beneath it.

I could not humble myself under His mighty hand until I became convinced He cared for me.  It helps me to remind myself often of how God loved me even when I was His enemy.

Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

You mean so much to God that He sacrificed greatly to bring you to Himself.  No rival thought should be allowed to exist in our minds.  Such thoughts should be cast down and replaced with the truth concerning His affections and faithfulness.  Anything that challenges the idea that God cares about you should be kicked out of your mind quickly and replaced with the truth that He cares for you.  His mighty hand stands ready to help!  God cares!
