Unload On God. Hurl Your Cares On Him.

God cares for you, so turn all your worries over to him.
-- 1 Peter 5:7 (CEV)

Unload on Him all your cares.
-- 1 Peter 5:7 (French Translation Bible)

Hurling all your cares upon Him.
-- 1 Peter 5:7 (Greek)

Happy is the soul that is not uneasy.

My Lord, help me to be always trusting with my mind fastened on You. I don't ever want to be troubled thinking You don't care for me. I want to be anxious about nothing, but continuously believing that You are totally trustworthy, yes, that You care for me at all times and in all circumstances of life. Indeed, I desire to live by faith and to die in faith. In Jesus' name. Amen.

During our Bible School days, 1992-1994, my wife, Kim, and I raised our then small children on this family theme song from 1 Peter 5:7. We often sang it during trying times. It brings tears to my eyes whenever I hear it still:

Be Present in the Present!

Yesterday was mine but now it is God's. Tomorrow is God's but will one day be mine. Today is God's gift to me. That's why it's called "the present".

But don't just take my words for it. Hear the words of Jesus recorded in Matthew 6:34 (TLB) -- So don’t be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time.

Lord, help me to stay out of the two days that belong only to You -- yesterday and tomorrow. Give me a focused faith that causes me to be present in the present. Instead of worrying over yesterday and wondering about tomorrow, help me to be all about worshipping You in Spirit and in Truth today. I want to be found in your presence in the present. In Jesus' name. Amen.

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
