Luke
24:17
And he
said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to
another, as ye walk, and are sad?
God Cares When We’re Sad
Jesus
drew near the two that were walking to Emmaus that day and asked them about
what they were talking to each other about and why are they sad. Apart from the incredible fact that the
resurrected Jesus was walking and talking with them, it is so comforting to
note that Jesus mentioned that He had observed that they were sad. Our God cares when we are sad. He wants to draw near and question us about
our sadness. These questions are not
intended to inform Him, for He knows all things, but He knows that talking
through things will help bring us comfort, especially talking through these
things with Him. Jesus then takes them
to the written word of God to make sense of the recent events and their impact
on these two and their emotions. Jesus
will often direct us to the written Word of God to make sense of the seemingly
nonsensical events that occur around us.
How precious that our God cares for us when we are sad and wants to walk
and talk with us and bring us comfort!
Are you sensitive to this fact today?
