You cannot Weary Him

Keep your wants, your joys, your sorrows, your cares, and your fears before God. You cannot burden Him; you cannot weary Him. He who numbers the hairs of your head is not indifferent to the wants of His children.

"The Lord is very pitying and of tender mercy." James 5:11

God's heart of love is touched by our sorrows and even by our utterances of them. Take to Him every thing that perplexes the mind. Nothing is too great for Him to bear, for He holds up worlds, He rules over all the affairs of the universe.

Nothing that in any way concerns our peace is too great for God to notice.
