"WHO CARES FOR ME?"

A poor, lone woman sat one evening, thinking how sad was her condition. She was old and almost helpless, with little of this world's goods which she could call her own. "Who cares for me?" thought she. Suddenly this verse came to her remembrance: "For we have not an High Priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities."
It was like a flood of golden sunshine. Her doubts and fears were all gone. What need of earthly friends to cheer and soothe her declining years? Jesus knew her every care and sorrow, and he, "the Lord of glory," was touched with the feeling of her infirmities. How precious is the thought that we can all have such a friend in every season of trial and distress! "I will not leave you comfortless," are the Saviour's gracious words. "My peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."
