Are You Care-Free?

For the past two weeks, in addition to my morning Bible reading and time of prayer, I've been working my way through the chapters of Dear Timothy: Letters on Pastoral Ministry. This morning I read through most of chapter 7, entitled "Cultivate Humility," written by C.J. Mahaney. I was convicted and encouraged by this paragraph:

...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.
