How can I respond?

1. I have a loving Heavenly Father who created me, understands my frailty, cares for me, and hears my prayer.

Key points

God created the world and He is still actively interested in it. My knowledge of His Word is not an accident. He has given me not only my life - which I owe to Him - but also hope of a much better life, in His Kingdom. Through His Word, I am assured He cares for me. I can turn to Him in prayer at any time, through His Son, thanking Him for His blessings, seeking His forgiveness and help for each day.

God cares for me

1 Peter 5:6,7

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

God created me

Psalm 119:73

Thy hands have made me and fashioned me.

God understands my frailty

Psalm 103:10-14

He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities... Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him. For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

God hears my prayer

Psalm 34:15

The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

So what?

I recognise every day as a blessing from God; on waking I can thank my Creator for giving me a new day and new opportunities to serve Him. He understands my frame; he remembers I am dust; so I can plead for strength to bear the burdens of each day, trusting that He will provide for my needs according to His wisdom.
