In a conversation with my mom recently she mentioned the following Spurgeon quote on casting even the smallest of our cares on our heavenly Father.

To suppose that temporal things are too little for our condescending God is to forget that He observes the flight of sparrows and counts the hairs of His people’s heads. Besides, everything is so little to Him, that, if He does not care for the little, He cares for nothing.

A couple of days ago Justin Buzzard at Buzzardblog posted the following quote from C.J. Mahaney in Dear Timothy: Letters on Pastoral Ministry.

…all day long, at the moment you become aware of burdensome cares, cast them upon the Lord, who cares for you. Where there is worry and anxiety; there is the pride of self-reliance. The humble man, though he may be responsible for many things, is free of care–he is care-free. His life is characterized by joy and peace, for it is impossible to be worried while trusting the Sovereign One.

What are you doing with your cares?
