The Answer to the Question

Continued from "Asking Questions":
"Lord, don't you care?" Of course he cares. That's why he came. Who in their right mind would leave heaven to actually live on earth? Unthinkable. But that is exactly what Jesus did. God became one of us so that when we ask, "Lord, don't you care?" we can know without a doubt that he does. Through Jesus Christ incarnate, God entered the world through the same doorway we do. Then he stuck around as long as we'd let him, until we sent him, dying, out the same painful exit we will go. Does he care? You'd better believe it! The fact is, until we stop doubting God's goodness, we can't experience God's love. But rest assured, God will answer. He longs to reveal his love to you. But you won't find it by shaking your fist in his face. You'll find it by sitting at his feet and remembering who he is. He knows the journey is difficult. He knows life is rarely fair. Jesus fought the same frigid winds of distractions, discouragement, and doubt that keep us from knowing God's love. But like the Father, he longs to gather us in his arms. The Lord Jesus invites us to cast our doubts, our fears and anxiety upon him, to discover how much he really does care. Trust me, my child, he whispers. I have your ultimate good in mind.
