I turned to 1 Peter 5: 7, “Cast your cares on Him because He cares for you.” He does care! I felt His presence fill me with peace and love. There was healing in that presence for me. I had been wrestling with Satan’s lies about by being unloved and unlovable. At times I had felt like he was tearing my heart apart. He kept showing me a great void in my life. But, my Father’s love fills that void far better than any human love could. (1)
