“Casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.”
“Cast your anxieties upon Him because He cares for you!” When Alex Mathew spoke last summer at the ALMI men’s and women’s retreats, he made an interesting observation. The body is made in such a way that the mouth takes in things good and bad. During processing, the nutrients are absorbed and the waste is expelled. Just like an engine, which with intake must have exhaust. However, mind and emotions are constantly taking in with no way to expel what is not useful. The result is a constipated mind. Chemically, the brain actually becomes loaded and causes the heaviness that many feel. The obvious question is, “How do I get things moving out of my mind and emotions?” There are a few simple commands. I Peter 5:7, “Casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you,” and I Thess. 5:17, “Pray without ceasing.” It is in our fellowship with Him that we are able to release that which has us mentally constipated. In Him we will find everything that we have looked for elsewhere in vain.
