1 Peter 5:6-7 (NLT)
So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

Waking up in the morning to worries and concerns is like rolling out of bed with a heavy backpack strapped to your shoulders. And to make things worse, we so often seek out all kinds of human solutions first in an attempt to get rid of it, and when all else fails, then we look to God for help.
Why not trade your worrisome concern for prayer, and let the Lord lift that backpack off your shoulders? His arm is long so that He can rescue you. His heart is big so that He can care about you and care for you. His shoulders are strong so that He can not only carry you and your burdens, but He can also lift you up in honor because of your faith!
Pray this way: Father God, I begin this day by placing my worries, cares and anxious thoughts in Your hands because I know You are going to take care of me. I humble myself in Your hands so that at the right time for You, You will lift me up with honor for Your glory. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Have a blessed day!
