“Cast It All on Him”

Life brings burdens, some expected, others completely overwhelming. Whether it’s the weight of responsibility, fear, grief, anxiety, or spiritual weariness, we all experience seasons when the load feels too heavy to carry. Psalm 55:22 gives us a gentle but powerful instruction: “Cast your cares on the Lord…”

Not manage them.
Not hide them.
Not carry them quietly.
But cast them intentionally, completely, and trustingly—onto the Lord.

God’s promise is that He will sustain you. When you release your burdens to Him, He doesn’t promise that life will suddenly become easy. But He promises something greater: “He will sustain you.” Keep in mind that God doesn't always remove the burden immediately, but He gives you the strength to endure. His sustaining presence keeps your feet steady when life feels shaky. He holds you up when you’re close to falling.

To be righteous doesn’t mean to be perfect; it means to be in right relationship with God, seeking Him daily and trusting His ways. He will never leave you shaken! This promise, that He will never let the righteous be shaken, reminds us that our security is only in Him, not in our circumstances. When your world feels unstable, God is your anchor. You might feel pressure, but you won’t be destroyed. You might feel shaken, but you won’t be uprooted.

Questions for Reflection:

• What burdens are you carrying today that you haven’t yet cast on the Lord?
• Have you been trying to manage everything on your own strength?
• How might your day change if you truly believed God is sustaining you?

Prayer:

Lord, I bring my burdens to You—every care, every fear, every pressure. Teach me not to carry what I was never meant to bear. Help me to trust You with what feels heavy today. Thank You for being my Sustainer, my Anchor, and my Peace. I rest in Your strength, not mine. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
