Cast your burdens
Psalm 23:4
Yes though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil, for thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me

There are times in our lives where circumstances make us feel or put us in the emotions the Psalmist is expressing in the verse above

Like the Psalmist says, no matter how dark or threatening our circumstances the fact that we have the Lord by our side makes all the difference.

Isaiah 41:10 says
Fear not, for I am with you
Be not dismayed for I am your God
I will strengthen you
I will help you
I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.

Once we trust in God, He will strengthen, help and uphold us in the journey of life, therefore, let us cast our burdens on Him.

I Peter 5:7
Cast all your cares on Him, for He cares for you

This verse from the new testament assures us that it is okay to cast our cares on God because He cares for us. He loves us and has our welfare at heart.
God be with you

How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Whenever you feel stressed or burdened with problems, call on the Lord through prayer and cast your burdens on Him

Prayer
Meditate on the words of this song

Cast your burdens unto Jesus
For He cares for you
Take your troubles to King Jesus
There is rest for you

If you knew Him better
You will praise Him louder
You will lift Him higher
You will love Him better

Higher, higher, higher
Lift King Jesus higher
Higher, higher, higher
Lift King Jesus higher
Amen
