— Psalm 55:22 —
Cast your cares on the Lord
and he will sustain you;
he will never let the righteous fall.__________________________
Every circumstance in life is lovingly sifted through the Lord's fingers before reaching us. From His perspective, those things which are too heavy for us are opportunities for dependence upon Him. God never intended for any of us to carry a burden without him. He says to give it to him and he promises to sustain us. Casting all your cares upon God means releasing them fully into his control. You will no longer be free to manage and manipulate the situation toward your desired outcome, but the freedom Christ offers will release you from the burden's oppressive weight. He'll sustain you with His peace as you trust Him.
