Cast Your Care

Do you realize that when you face anxiety or adversity you can cast all your care upon the Lord?  The Psalmist proclaims in Psalm 55:22, "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall."  

When you are burdened with the heaviness of life, give it to God. When your load is so heavy it feels as if you are going to fall beneath it, lay it in the arms of God. Cast your cares on the Lord. When you do, God has promised to keep you, to sustain you.

Let's look at the word sustain.  This word means to hold steady, to support, to prolong, to carry, to extend in duration. The word sustain means to keep alive, to bear the weight, to withstand the pressure, to hold up while weak. 

The Bible teaches God will never let the righteous fall. He will sustain you and hold you up. When the world sends you in a tailspin, give God your anxieties and frustrations. Cast your cares on God. His promise is to keep you in all places, where ever you go.
