Casting Your Cares on God
"Daily Devotional for Women"
"Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."
1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)
Devotional
Life often brings worries that weigh us down, including concerns about our families, finances, health, and the future. As women, we tend to carry a lot on our shoulders, constantly thinking about how to solve problems, care for others, and keep everything together. But God never intended for us to bear these burdens alone.
1 Peter 5:7 is a beautiful invitation from the Lord. He calls you to cast all your cares upon Him, not just some of them, but every single one. Why? Because He cares for you.
The Creator of the universe, the One who holds the stars in place, also holds you in His hands. He sees your struggles, your silent prayers, and the burdens you try to carry alone. And He lovingly says, "Give them to Me."
When you cast your cares on God, you are choosing trust over worry, faith over fear, and peace over stress. You are not meant to figure everything out by yourself. You are meant to rest in His love and let Him carry what is too heavy for you.
Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for Your endless love and care for me. Sometimes, my worries feel overwhelming, and I struggle to let go. But today, I choose to cast all my cares upon You. I surrender my fears, anxieties, and burdens into Your hands, knowing that You are my refuge and strength.
Help me to trust You more each day. Fill my heart with peace and remind me that I am never alone. Thank You for carrying what I cannot and for loving me with a love that never fails.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
