Life can get pretty tough at times. Nothing seems to go right, and Murphy’s Law gets put into action. It seems like no matter what we do we can’t get our heads above water and nothing we do helps. There is the constant pressure of doing what the world wants rather than what God wants. I know there are times when I just feel like God could care less about my silly problems that I have let bother me and eat at my skin. He is an Almighty God, why should He have to deal with my drama?
Hebrews 4:15 says, “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are - yet was without sin.”
That’s right, God knows exactly what we are going through. No matter what it is. He sees you, He’s near you, He knows your face, He knows your pain, He knows everything you are going through! He knows YOUR name! (Song: Name - Fireflight)
We serve a powerful God that loves the individual as much as the group. He wants to be bothered with the “little” things. The situations that worry us, worry Him. If it matters to us, it matters to Him. He loves us, and we love Him!
Challenge: Do you know someone who is struggling with problems, and it seems that if it can go wrong it goes wrong for them? If you do, do something for them to let them know that you see their struggles, which means that God sees their struggles and that with Him the burden won’t be heavy any longer.

It is so true, Malerie! God does know our name, and He knew us before we were even formed in our mother's womb. He knows the exact # of hairs on our head. We talked this past Sunday in Cool Kids church about how God cares about our everyday lives and if it matters to us and is important to us, then God is right there with us.
