We may think, "Nobody knows what We're going through, nobody feels the pain We experiencing."
But God knows!
Am I troubled, distressed, agitated or afraid? Jesus does not want me to be troubled, but to have peace in my heart. Jesus has good plans for my future. Jesus will do even greater things through me. Jesus will continue to answer my prayers. Jesus will never leave me alone. Jesus says, ‘I will not leave you as orphans. He says that he’ll ‘provide me another Friend so that I will always have someone with me. This Friend is the Spirit of Truth... he has been staying with me, and will even be in me!’ Jesus will continue to love me. Those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them’. The way in which Jesus passes on his legacy to me is through the Holy Spirit. He will send the Holy Spirit to live in my heart: ‘The Friend, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will make everything plain to me’.
He knows our feelings and frustrations. He's seen the crisis in our soul. There's no hurt that goes unnoticed by God. Psalm 56:6 says, "You know how troubled We are; you have kept a record of our tears." (Good News)
Often when we're hurting, we feel very isolated and lonely. Maybe there's been a problem or death in the family, a divorce, maybe we've gotten fired, maybe our children has a problem, a health problem, and we start to think, "Nobody understands the way I feel; nobody can tell the way I feel; nobody feels the pain."
But God knows, and "The LORD is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who fear him." (Psalms 103:13 NLT)
God not only sees, He cares! He knows the causes, the reasons, the things that brought you to this point. He understands because he made us, and he sees the hurt in our heart like nobody else can.
Because God knows our frustrations and despair, we can give those feelings to God: "Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about what happens to us." (1 Peter 5:7
Cast them all permanently on God, once and for all, and then, don't take them back.
