Day 2: Casting Your Cares on Him
“Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
PTSD often brings a heavy burden of worries and fears. These burdens may feel impossible to carry on your own. The good news is, you don’t have to. In 1 Peter 5:7, God invites you to cast all your cares on Him because He cares deeply for you.
Casting your cares is an act of trust. Imagine unloading a heavy bag onto someone strong enough to carry it. God is that strong and trustworthy friend. He knows the depth of your pain and is compassionate toward you. He doesn’t just see your struggles; He cares about them.
Today, take time to pray and intentionally hand over your worries to God. Be specific about what you’re struggling with. You might even write down your cares as a symbolic act of casting them upon Him. Then trust that He is faithful to carry them for you.
