Cast Your Burden (II)
1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
Today, we will look at how we can cast our cares and burdens to the Lord and be at rest. We can do this by paying attention to the following:
- Acknowledge that the Lord is wiser than you and can help you as He has promised. See Matthew 11:28-30.
- Pray about the situation and tell God all your concerns about it. When it comes to God, I do not hide. I have been with Him for some time now to know that He sees and knows me through and through. Hiding my true felings will end in futility. So, I am learning to take both the negative and positive thoughts to Him.
- Come to God in faith, believing that He loves you and wants to help you.
- As you cast your cares on God, expect Him to help you and show you the way out. The Bible says: “Call to Me, And I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know” (Jeremiah 33:3).
Friend, if we do this, I believe we will begin to live in peace and manage our situations well. God cares for you. He wants to sustain you and keep you from falling. Shalom.
Your Turn
- Talk to God as you have been ministered to.
Song: Lord, I thirst for You.
