"Cast your burden on the LORD, and 

HE will sustain you; HE will never 

permit the righteous to be moved!" 

Psalm 55:22

Why are we so determined to carry our 

own burdens, when we have proved 

countless times that we are utterly 

insufficient for the task? 

Is it not due to our sinful flesh, carnal 

pride, and foolish self-sufficiency? 

We often mope about in sadness 

and depression with heavy hearts--

because we foolishly, ignorantly, 

and obstinately refuse to cast our 

burden on the LORD. 

The LORD JESUS has proven HIMSELF 

fully capable and willing to carry our 

heaviest burdens. The heaviest load 

that has ever been carried was 

carried by HIM, for 

"the LORD has laid on HIM 

the iniquity of us all!" Isaiah 53:6. 

It was the tremendous weight 

of our sins made HIS--

which laid HIM low in the garden of 

Gethsemane, and pressed HIS blood 

through the pores of HIS skin. 

In infinite mercy and grace, HE bore our sins, 

our guilt, and our shame in HIS own body on 

the cruel tree, and was made a curse for us--

that we might be made the righteousness 

of GOD in HIM. HE not only carried our sins 

to Calvary's cross, HE took them away 

forever by the sacrifice of HIMSELF. 

"As far as the east is from the west, 

so far has HE removed our transgressions 

from us!" Psalm 103:12  

Children of GOD, let us forever cease 

from fleshly self-dependence--

and cast every burden on our mighty 

SAVIOR. It doesn't matter what the burden 

is, or how heavy the load is--

the LORD JESUS is ready, able, and 

willing to bear it for us. We need not 

bear it even for a moment. 

It is our glorious right and GOD-given 

privilege as the beloved children of GOD, 

to cast every care and every burden 

on our SAVIOR.

Are your struggling to carry a burden 

of guilt and sin? Struggle no longer and 

stumble no more. Cast your sin and 

guilt on HIM! 

HE will . . .
  sustain you,
  forgive you,
  receive you,
  and embrace you!

Are your responsibilities stressful and 

overwhelming your soul? Do not neglect 

them, but do not presume that you are 

sufficient to do anything on your own.
Cast them on HIM,
seek HIS grace,
depend on HIS mighty arm--

and HE will sustain you!

Is your heart laid low with heavy 

cares and secret troubles? 

Cast them all on CHRIST! 

In love, grace, and wisdom, your SAVIOR 

gave you these cares and troubles--

not to see how far you could carry 

them on your own--

but to bring you to the end 

of yourself. HE gave you these 

cares to show you your inability, 

your weakness, and your need of HIM--

that you would cease from your carnal 

self-confidence and find your all in HIM:
  full salvation,
  infinite strength,
  unceasing aid,
  everlasting sufficiency,
  and perfect help. 

HIS power and grace are sufficient 

for us in all things . . .
  in every trial,
  in every circumstance,
  and in every temptation.

HE will sustain us to the end. 

HE will never allow HIS righteous 

ones to be moved. HE loves them 

with an everlasting immutable love! 

They will never be utterly forsaken 

or cast down. HE . . .
  keeps them,
  protects them,
  helps them,
  preserves them,
  provides for their souls, and
  sustains them freely forever by 

HIS almighty grace!

No two things fit more perfectly together, 

than an all-sufficient SAVIOR--

and a needy sinner!

"Humble yourselves, therefore, under 

the mighty hand of GOD, so that HE may 

exalt you at the proper time; casting all 

your care on HIM, because HE cares 

about you!" 1 Peter 5:6-7
