Most people have so many burdens that they don't know what to do with any more. However, our heavenly Father reminds us to cast all our anxieties on him because he will sustain us. ( 1 Peter 5:7) We can share our cares on the Lordbecause he will sustain us. (Psalm 55:22) We can joyously praise our Savior because he daily bears our burdens. (Psalm 68:19)
