It's The Small Things

To God, small things matter.  God doesn't only care with the grand things, but He cares with small matters of our lives.  God is a personal God.  he knows us by name.  He even knows the number of our hairs on our head.  His thoughts about us outnumber the grains of the sand.  He cares about the minute details of our lives.

What we do matter to God.  Even the everyday things we do matter to Him.  When we eat, when we sleep, when we lie down, when we sit, when we walk, when we think, even when we do nothing -- it matters to Him.

When we feel happy, when we feel sad, when we feel frustrated, when we feel, mad, when we feel hurt, when we feel afraid -- it matters to Him.  When we are healthy, when we are sick, when we achieve something, when we fail, when we decide, when we do not decide -- it all matters to Him.  Everything matters to Him. Everything about you and about me matters to Him.

Even the simplest and insignificant thing that happens to us do not go unnoticed by Him.  Even the smallest and taken for granted things that we do matter to Him. He knows every thing we do.  That is how He cares for us. To Him, small things that happen to our lives matter to Him.  So whenever you have fears, doubts, and cares you must remind yourself that you have a God who cares for you.

Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.
- 1 Peter 5:7

 Yes, God cares.  And you need not fret, but instead you should cast any cares you have in your life unto Him for HE cares for you.
