Consolation for Care-bearers

Whatever we are bearing...He cares!
Whether we are care-givers of a suffering loved one,
whether we are the suffering loved one,
whether we are caretakers 
or care-worn...
God cares!

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



 
This place of grace and grief and pain
This cradle filled with care
Where morning hoists its flare
And trust, unable to explain
Love’s wherefore, bows in prayer

How oft our spirits quake with fear
Where beyond our control
God’s thoughts and ways arouse the tear
That vexes heart and soul
As we like blind men strain to hear

From east to west daylight’s pizzazz
Begets what dusk will fell
What waits to test our cheeky jazz
Ah, none of us can tell
Where we are all as needy as

Belief is filled with awe
For He does not ignore our prayers
But beckons us to draw
Living Water where naught compares  
With His word's perfect law

 Mark 10:51-52
And Jesus answered and said unto him, 
What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? 
The blind man said unto him, 
Lord, that I might receive my sight.
 And Jesus said unto him, 
Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole.
 And immediately he received his sight,
 and followed Jesus in the way.
