Surrender it all to Jesus

Louie Hillen

Scripture

1 Peter 5:6-7

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Observation

Humbling ourselves to our elders but most of all humbling ourselves before the Lord. Pride can get in the way when we think we can do it on our own. Peter encourages us to lay everything down before God, to resist being proud. God does care for us and He wants us to trust in Him.

Application

I'm encouraged to humble myself before my Lord Jesus Christ. There is so much going on in this world and in my life. The stress and the burdens of life is not for us to carry. The Lord knows that it is not good for us to carry this heavy burden. Give all your cares to Him. As I reflect on my life today, I question myself as whether I am truly casting all my cares upon Jesus. I must surrender all to Him and to hold nothing back, humbling myself under the mighty hand of God and let Him be the Lord of my life.

Prayer

Heavenly Father I humbly come before you to surrender everything that's going on in my life. Thank you very much for taking care of my family and I. As for me and my house we will serve you. Jesus I Love You. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
