Casting Out My Anxiety

Scripture: 1 Peter 5: [7] Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Observation: God wants me to cast my anxiety on Him, because He loves me. I just got off the phone with my mom who is going through a situation that has her depressed. She says she feels better when she vents and gets it out of her system. So for the moment I listen as she tells me how she feels and how people have done her wrong and as she started with anxiety you can hear by the tone of her voice that she seems to feel better for that moment. I listen because I do care for her and I want much more for her than she has, but it will be up to her what she receives. God wants much more he wants to take my burdens for good and then get rid of them and He tells me He will never forsake me and if I focus on Him and what He wants for me I shouldn’t have any anxiety in my life.

Application: I need to live a respectful life for my creator. I need to show others God love by trusting Him and all the promises He has given us. If people see that I don’t stress no matter what I can lead them to my source of strength and they can live a life free of anxiety.

Prayer: Dear Lord thank you so much for caring for me, that you don’t want me to suffer and in the times of trials you are always with me. Help me live a life that shows your loving ways in my life and use it to comfort others.
