Cast your burden on the Lord [release it] and He will sustain and uphold you;

Give God the right to direct your life,
and as you trust Him along the way
you’ll find He pulled it off perfectly! ~ Psalm 37:5, TPT
Lord, how can it be that You love me so much? How can it be that You know all that concerns me and You delight in meeting my needs? I trust You, Lord. Really, I do. Help me cast my burdens on You.
They are too much for me to carry.
Lord, Help Me Cast My Burdens On You
What a joy it is to know that You are my Burden-Bearer. My back breaks from the weight when I try to carry them on my own. My heart trembles with despair … when I take my eyes off You.
That’s the secret, isn’t it? Focusing on You and the truth of Your Word is how we learn to let go and let You handle our difficult places.
I bring my restless thoughts captive to You, Lord. Be Lord over all that concerns me. Your sovereignty reassures me and gives me courage as I cast my burdens on You.
Open my eyes to see Your mighty hands reaching through the heavens to lift my burdens from me — those desperate and dark places that consume my heart.
Cause me to breathe in the nearness of Your Presence, to cling to Your peace. You are Jehovah Shalom — the Lord my peace.
When I cast my burdens on You, I know Your peace. I walk in Your peace.
And joy returns.
Strength is regained.
Hope is renewed.
When I Cast My Burdens on God I Find Peace, Joy, Strength, and Hope
I bow before You now, O Lord and roll these burdens over to You. I entrust the cares of my heart to Your remarkable watch-care knowing that You do all things well.
And when my fingers grip my concerns a little too tight, would You gently unfurl them and help me let go?
Thank You.
Bless You, O Lord. You are an awesome God. Your love never fails.
In Jesus’s Name I pray,
Amen

Sweet blessings to you,
Good morning, Nan, thank you for this heart-baring prayer. I have been down with back issues, unexplained..no obvious fall or strain. I needed this prayer to keep leaning in, unfurling my hands and opening my whole self to Jesus. Thank you, sister. Love in Christ, Julie
Oh Julie! Bless your heart. I’m so thankful this encouraged you. With each prayer I ask the Lord to direct our conversation in a way that will draw the one to His throne who needs to be strengthened. I will add you to my prayer journal and hold you close to my heart. Love you sweet friend.
