- What have you been carrying that you are not meant to carry?
- No matter what you are going through or what you are facing, know that He Cares!
- This verse says to cast, or throw your cares upon Him.
- Throw off and throw on...Throw your cares off of yourself and Upon Him!
- Look at how the Amplified version reads, "Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully."
- That is a powerful translation!
- ALL your anxiety, ALL your worries, ALL your concerns...Once and for All!
- I encourage you to write down everything that you have been worried or concerned about...the things you tend to dwell on.
- The thing you are thinking about before you go to bed or when you get up.
- Write them all down on a piece of paper and then surrender them to Jesus.
- Symbolically hand the over and then THROW them in a trash can - Because they are not yours to carry around with you.
- Get rid of them!
- Jesus paid a great price for you to throw them upon Him!
- Isaiah 53:4 says "Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering..."
- Our sickness, weakness and distress...He took it all!
- Why would you want to carry that with you?
- It's like carrying a dead weight around with you everywhere you go.
- This is better than even a best friend can do.
- A close friend can just listen to you but Jesus can actually take it from you!
- "He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully"
- He really cares beyond anything you can imagine because He knows how free you will be when you are not carrying that weight around!
- Make the decision today to live Free!
- Make the decision to cast it on Him!
- Live like the New person you were meant to be, Today!
- Have a great Thursday!
