One of the expressions that I hear quite often is, "Who cares?" When I hear that expression, I grieve because the person who exclaimed this feels all alone and rejected. You live in an age when caring for others is usually not the top priority in the lives of people.
Paul wrote these words to Timothy about the last days: "For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God: having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."
When you esteem others higher than yourself, you are expressing to them that they are a priority in your life. When you humble yourself before Me by casting all of your cares upon Me because you know that I care for you, you will be able to reach out to those who think that nobody cares.
