Bible verse
Psalm 55:22
“Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.”
What it means
There is a picture here of setting down a weight you were never meant to carry alone and handing it over to Someone strong enough. God does not promise the road will be smooth, only that you will not be shaken loose from His hold. The New Testament picks up this very image, telling us to throw our worries on Him because He genuinely cares. Whatever is pressing on you today, you are allowed to release it. He will hold both the burden and you.
Read it, pray it, live it
On The Living Bread you can read the whole chapter, save this verse, ask Simon to explain it, pray it over your life, and share it with someone who needs it today.
