1 Peter 5:7 | Casting All Your Anxieties on Him

What does 1 Peter 5:7 say? It's a famous Bible verse about anxiety, fear, worry, stress, and what to do about it all.

God speaks a much needed word to us in 1 Peter 5:6-7: let me carry your cares. He tells us to assess our situation honestly—we have hurts we can’t handle, situations we can’t solve, needs we can’t meet. Yet we have a God who asks us, “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” (Genesis 18:14).

“Let me help,” he says. And when we say to God, “Please carry this,” we are also saying, “because I can’t.” This verse tells us that the One who upholds the universe not only can carry your anxieties, he wants to, because he cares for you. He can start right now, if you’ll just humble yourself and ask.
