Cast Away

1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." 

I could seriously highlight all of 1 Peter!  Such a good book.  But this verse is the verse for me today.  God cares for me and I can cast all my anxiety on him today.  Peter gives me permission to "cast" my anxiety on him.  I am not to sheepishly ask God to take my anxiety, or just shyly hand it to him, I am to cast it at him!  Just as I might launch a Strike King Rattlin' Midnight Special spinner bait (gotta get me one) into the lake as far as I can, I am to cast my cares, anxieties and worries on God.  He's big enough to handle them.  I clearly am not.  So today, I cast away!  And once it's gone, it's gone.  I have to believe that and trust him.  When it's gone, it's gone.
