God’s Care

With a whole universe to run, how can God watch over me so closely?

God’s Response

I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. Luke 24:49

Not even a sparrow, worth only half a penny, can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. . . . You are more valuable to him than a whole flock of sparrows. Matthew 10:29, 31

I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, who will never leave you. . . . No, I will not abandon you as orphans —I will come to you. John 14:16, 18

God watches over you because he is all-knowing and present everywhere. Jesus also promised that when he ascended to heaven, the Holy Spirit would come and dwell in all believers forever. The Almighty God created you, loves you, sustains you, and even knows the number of hairs on your head. If he promises to watch over you, you can trust that he is with you right now.

God’s Promise

He will not let you stumble and fall; the one who watches over you will not sleep. Indeed, he who watches over Israel never tires and never sleeps. Psalm 121:3-4
