Cast your cares on the Lord.
—Psalm 55:22
He offered him $250,000 a year to do all his worrying for him, and he accepted faster than you can count to 10 by 5s.
The new-hire’s first question was, “Where are you going to get the $250,000?”
“That’s your worry now,” he said, “not mine.”
You can’t get someone else to do your worrying for you.
But you can partner with God on what’s gnawing at you. “Cast your cares on the Lord,” wrote David.
Here’s how Peter said it: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you” (1 Pet. 5:7). THE LIVING BIBLE has it this way: “Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.”
Give your worries to God;
not to one of his assistants.
