Let it Go

 1 Peter 5:6-7 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, ⁷ casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

 

As we read these verses, we see that one of the ways that we humble ourselves is by casting ALL, our care upon Him. 

 For a clearer understanding the definition of all is- Every one, or the whole number of particulars. The whole quantity, extent, duration, amount, quality, or degree; as, all the wheat; all the land; all the year; all the strength. This word signifies then, the whole or entire thing, or all the parts or particulars which compose it.

It is so important to remember that there is NOTHING too big for God but also there is NOTHING to small form God either.  We need to be giving it all to Him.  Every and anything that we could possibly care about in any degree we need to cast on Him.  It is a lack of humility to do otherwise.  It is a lack of humility, and a lie, to think that something is too small to trouble God with as if we are doing the Lord a favor but not bringing something to Him.  Do we not understand that EVERYTHING compared to God is a small thing?  It is the height of arrogance, really, to not cast every single thing that troubles us and that we care about upon Him.  

He cares for us, He already knows what the need is, He is just waiting for us to release it.  He will not forcibly take our cares, troubles and worries from us.  He is not going to fight with our pride.  He will though willing accept everything that we will release to His care.  

I finish with a line from a song that was popular a few years ago.  “Let it go, let it go”
