CASTING OUR CARE 1 Peter 5 7 - 10
When I am wanting extra food or food I have chosen not to be my food, I can go to Jesus and cast my cares upon him. He then becomes my Daily Bread.
That part of the Lord's prayer was a bit confusing at one time because I thought, "l don't need to ask for daily bread. Maybe others in the world do but I have no problem finding lots!" For me, I understand it now to mean that when I go to God for sustenance, instead of to illicit food, I am choosing Jesus, the Bread of Life, to satisfy my soul. My soul is fed and experiences peace because JESUS is my peace!
Jesus wants to 'feed' my soul but the devil wants to 'devour' my soul!
Thank You gracious Father. YOU (not food) are the one who restores my weary soul when it is burdened with cares of this world. Help me to stand firm in my faith, confident that you care for me. AMEN!
