I Peter 5:7
Cast all your anxiety on Him for He cares for you.
I remember hearing a sermon on this verse one time and how the word “cast” is all about throwing something out and not reeling it back in.
And then the word “all” is about EVERYTHING…not just a few things, but every single thing that is stirring up anxious thoughts in your heart and mind.
WHY SHOULD WE DO THIS?
Because He cares for us.
I love to think of a Father who doesn’t take a deep sigh when I come to Him with a request as if I am keeping Him from what He really wants to do.
I love to think of a Father who always has time.
I love to think of a Father who is so absorbed in His children that nothing can cause Him to become exasperated………
or disappointed……
or frustrated……..
or tired……
When I picture God like this, I feel safe pouring out my heart.
And I believe that God wants us to feel safe with Him.
If you woke up this morning feeling anxious about your week or about your life, please know that you have a Father who wants to take it all from you and allow you to walk in peace.
I’m heading to work early and hoping that along the way, I can do some casting.
PS Our son Todd is 17 today! Where does the time go????
Love you all,
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven! Email me anytime at
