Day 18. Give your cares to God
Verse (King James Version)
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)
Read
It would be dishonest to say prayer makes every worry vanish. This verse does not promise that. It says you are cared for and you can hand things over. Handing something over usually means a bit more peace and a bit more clarity, even when the problem remains. And it does not replace talking to a person you trust.
Talk about it
What is the biggest thing you are carrying that you could share?
Try this
Write a short honest prayer or note about what is weighing on you, then talk to someone about it.
