1 Peter 5:6-7 (NIV)
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty
hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on
him because he cares for you.
You've probably had a similar experience to this one.
Someone asks you how you're doing. At first, they seem interested, but as you
begin to share the burdens of your heart, you begin to realize that they aren't
really listening and aren't really interested; they're just being polite. Most
people have so many burdens they simply don't know what to do with more. Our
Father in heaven, however, says "Cast all your anxieties on me. You can
share all of them with me, because I genuinely care for you."
Thought for today:
Is my care and concern for others genuine or am I just making polite gestures?
