The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanSample

Cast All Your Anxieties on Him

Imagine a seasoned fisherman standing on the sandy shore, the morning sun glistening on the water's surface as he skillfully maneuvers a sturdy net, carefully mending any loose ends. With a practiced motion, he casts the net out into the vast expanse of the sea, watching as it gracefully unfolds in the air before elegantly descending into the water. As the net submerges, the fisherman deftly releases it from his hands, allowing it to become one with the ebb and flow of the currents, confident in its ability to trap a bountiful catch. Similarly, we are encouraged to release our anxieties and concerns to God, trusting His compassionate care and unwavering provision. Just as the fisherman entrusts his net to the sea, we are called to entrust our worries to God, steadfast in our belief that He will lovingly guide and abundantly provide for us.

Practical Application: Identify your current anxieties and write them down. As a symbolic act, crumple the paper and throw it away, casting your cares on God. Trust in His loving care for you.
