“Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”
God loves and cares for us, and yet we experience difficulties. This does not seem right. If God is so mighty, why would he let bad things happen to us? Many people have asked that question, and it has led some to reject God or at least reject God, as He is revealed in the Bible. They believe that they know better. They want to set the parameters of how God should best show them care. They refuse to humble themselves and accept God’s way.
We will experience things that can easily lead to anxiety. When this happens it is natural to cast all the blame on God. But we need to cast our anxieties on Him. He knows what we are going through, and He cares. We should look trustingly to the One who has allowed it to happen and trust that He will bring us through the difficulty. If you refuse, you have not humbled yourself.
