Do Your Part!

Sometimes we feel like we should do more, you know, "Do our Part", but what if in God's eyes our part is to: Cast all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7

Cast your cares = give up to God, throw off, cast upon.

Care = worry, anxiety, a dividing and fracturing of a person's being into parts. Idea of distraction.

If we do not "Do Our Part" by casting our cares upon the Lord, are we interfering with God working on our behalf? 

Is our insistence on holding on to our anxieties and worries, which are distractions that are tearing us to pieces, actually doing us and perhaps others, more harm than good??? Hmmmmm, wonder, wonder, wonder......

Do we think that our concerns about things and particularly the well-being of others justifies and necessitates our holding on to our worries and anxieties. So, instead of following God's instructions and "Doing Our Part" we hold on to those cares. 

I suggest we "Do Our Part" today and throw off, onto God, the things that are causing us anxiety, worry and distraction and stop allowing ourselves to be torn up. We can trust the care that God has for us and the promise we find in...

Psalm 55:22 Give your burdens to the LORD, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.

Take God at His Word, and "Do Your Part" today. Release your burdens into His caring arms....He is more than able to take care of all than concerns you.

Ephesians 3:20-21
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
