Food for Soul
Is your heart laid low with heavy cares and secret troubles? Cast them all on Christ!
In love, grace, and wisdom, your Savior gave you these cares and troubles — not to see how far you could carry them on your own — but to bring you to the end of yourself. He gave you these cares to show you your inability, your weakness, and your need of Him — that you would cease from your carnal self-confidence and find your all in Him — full salvation, infinite strength, unceasing aid, everlasting sufficiency, and perfect help.
God be with you.
