Scripture
“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
–1 Peter 5:7
Devotional
God cares deeply for us and invites us to cast all our anxieties on Him, knowing He can handle our worries and provide us with peace. Countless things, situations, or people may cause us to worry, but worry is a thief. It robs us of our peace, health, and time. You cannot gain extra time by worrying, but you can lose hours throughout the day when you let thoughts of worry and anxiousness consume you.
Can we release the negative “what ifs” in our minds so that we can focus on present reality while remaining hopeful for the future?
Prayer
Lord, thank You for caring for us and inviting us to cast our anxieties on You. Help us trust in Your care and release our worries into Your loving hands. May we shift our mindsets from a place of fear and anxiety to a place of hopefulness and peace. Your Word says, “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things” (Philippians 4:8). Let us begin this shift in our mindsets today, in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
You are blessed.
