1 Peter 5:7
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
God invites us to transfer our anxieties to Him because He genuinely cares for us.
Casting our cares means actively throwing them onto God, not just mentioning them in prayer. This requires faith that God both can and will handle what burdens us. The motivation for casting our cares is God's care for us - He's not indifferent but deeply concerned about what concerns us.

Father, I cast all my cares upon You, knowing You care for me. Thank You for being strong enough to carry what overwhelms me. Amen.
