Scripture
Psalm 55:22 ESV states, “Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.” 1 Peter 5:6-7 ESV states, “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”
He Cares
As we cast our votes for the upcoming election, I am so thankful that my hope is not tied to the results. My hope is in Jesus. As believers in Christ, we understand that we have a risen savior who cares for us. He is seated at the right hand of the Father and he is interceding on our behalf. Jesus said, “Come to [him], all who labor and are heavy laden, and [He] will give [them] rest. Take [His] yoke upon you, and learn from [him], for [he is] gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For [His] yoke is easy, and [His] burden is light.” So, as you cast your votes today, give your cares to the Lord. As the polls close and the results start rolling in this evening, cast all of your anxieties on YOUR risen SAVIOR. Think about it. Then, go to OUR father and pray about it.
