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.
1 Peter 5:6-7 - NKJV.
Among the most vital lessons I've learnt in my Christian life is that I can't afford to carry any of my cares - I have to keep casting them on the Lord! Casting your cares on the Lord is the most responsible thing you can do because it gets them into the hands of the One who can really do something about them.
This is how the Apostle Paul lived. He committed everything and everyone he was responsible for to the Lord. He knew this was the most responsible thing to do. He knew well that no power he possessed in the flesh was going to benefit his churches or his ministry. If enduring growth and fruit was to come, he knew it had to come by God.
