I have read it over and over this morning.

⁷ Throw all your anxieties upon him, because he cares about you.

Have you ever thrown a basketball? Ever thrown anything? It takes a decision and movement doesn’t it? You can’t be passive about it. You can’t just sit there and hope it will happen. You have to make a move. Hmm. Throw. It is the word used here.

So to get my anxieties upon Him I have to make a move. And that move is TRUST. Trust is active. It is a decision that I make and He supplies the power to follow through. To actually do the casting as the King James version reads.

7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

via I Peter 5 KJV;CJB – The elders which are among you I – Bible Gateway.

And why should I make this active decision to throw all my anxieties upon Him? Because HE CARES ABOUT ME.

HE CARES ABOUT YOU.

HE cares.

You name it. Whatever anxiety you have. Fill in the blank or blanks _________, _________, ________.  He cares!

Lets play some basketball on this 24th day of 2014.
