Verse of the Day

"Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."

1 Peter 5:7 (WEB)

In context · 1 Peter 5

5Likewise, ye younger, be subject unto the elder. Yea, all of you gird yourselves with humility, to serve one another: for God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.

6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;

7casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you.

8Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

9whom withstand stedfast in your faith, knowing that the same sufferings are accomplished in your brethren who are in the world.

A short reflection

Take a slow breath before reading this again. Notice the verb, the person being addressed, the promise being made. Scripture rewards slowness.

Carry one phrase from this verse with you today — not as a slogan, but as a quiet companion. Let it surface when you're driving, waiting, or trying to fall asleep.
