He cares for you.

Series: The Way Back | Week 4: To Peace

1 Peter 5:7

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

The idea here is not to cast your worries away like you would a fishing pole, where it can return to you. It really means to transfer your anxiety on him. All your worries, fears, and cares can be transferred off you and on to God simply because He cares for you. God doesn’t give you anxiety because you don’t have enough faith, aren’t praying better prayers, or have unconfessed sin in your life. 

Are you reluctant to transfer your anxiety to God? Why do you feel that way? Lay aside those feelings and experience peace today. Stop trying to understand how or even why God would care about you and humbly recognize that He does. Peace isn’t dependent upon circumstances. It’s always something to be experienced.
