Casting Your Care 1 Peter 5:7 #RTTBROS #Nightlight Casting Your Cares Upon the Lord "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." - 1 Peter 5:7 (KJV) Devotion: In the book of 1 Peter, we find a powerful reminder of God's love and care for us. The apostle Peter encourages us to cast all our cares upon the Lord, knowing that He cares for us deeply. But what does it truly mean to cast our cares upon Him? The Greek word used for "casting" in this verse is "epiripsantes," which means to throw upon or to place upon. It implies a deliberate and purposeful action of transferring our burdens and worries onto someone else. In this case, we are called to transfer our cares onto the Lord. However, there is a significant difference between casting our cares and reeling them back in like a fisherman. When a fisherman casts his line, he expects to reel the fish back in. But when we cast our cares upon the Lord, we are called to leave them there permanently, trusting in His ability to handle them. Far too often, we find ourselves casting our cares upon the Lord in prayer, only to quickly reel them back in by continuing to worry and fret over our circumstances. We must learn to cast our cares and leave them in His capable hands. The Bible tells us in Psalms 55:22 (KJV), "Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." When we truly cast our cares upon Him, we can have confidence that He will sustain us and keep us steady, even in the midst of life's storms. God's care for us is not a temporary fix or a quick solution. It is a permanent, unwavering love that desires to carry our burdens and guide us through every challenge we face. When we cast our cares upon Him, we are demonstrating our trust in His goodness and our willingness to surrender our lives into His hands. As you go about your day, remember to cast your cares upon the Lord - not just once, but continually. Leave them in His capable hands, knowing that He cares for you deeply and desires to carry your burdens. Trust in His love and provision, and allow Him to sustain you through every trial and triumph. Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unwavering love and care for us. Help us to cast our cares upon You, not just momentarily, but permanently. Give us the faith to trust in Your goodness and the strength to leave our burdens in Your capable hands. Sustain us and guide us through every challenge we face, knowing that You are with us always. In Jesus' name, Amen. Our Podcast, Blog and YouTube Links https://linktr.ee/rttbros Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros
