讀經：彼得前書第五章。
默想：「你們要將一切的憂慮卸給神，因為祂顧念你們。」（彼前5:7）
默想一：你正在為許多事憂慮煩躁以致於被壓得透不過氣來嗎？不論是來自工作、事奉、課業、家庭、經濟、人際關係、疾病纏身，別忘了，你我有一個作神兒女的特權，就是能將一切的憂慮卸給神，因祂顧念我們。祂應許：「凡勞苦擔重擔的人，可以到我這裡來，我就使你們得安息。」（太11:28）
默想二：為什麼憂慮也是一種罪？因為憂慮是否定神的全知、全能、全在，也懷疑神的話語、信實、引導、供應、保護。憂慮常使我們分心，以致遠離神。我們要及時轉向神，求神赦免我們的小信，祂必讓我們從新得力。
禱告：感謝神，因袮的愛及不變的應許。求祢讓我知道，不是以為把一切的憂慮卸給祢就高枕無憂了，自己還得「務要謹守、驚醒，因為我們的仇敵魔鬼，如同吼叫的獅子，遍地遊行，尋找可吞吃的人」（彼前5:8）。主，我願時時刻刻投靠祢。奉主耶穌的名祈求，阿們！
Bible Reading: 1 Peter 5.
Insight: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” (1Pe 5:7)
Insight one: Are you overwhelmingly stressful because of worrying about and bothering by a lot of things? Those things may resulted from your job, ministry, school, family, finance, interpersonal relationship, or illness, remember, you and I have the privilege of being children of God so we can cast all our anxiety on Him because He cares for us. He has promised: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Mat 11:28)
Insight two: Why is anxiety also a sin? It is because anxiety makes us disavow the omniscient, almighty, and everlasting God. It also makes us uncertain about His words, faithfulness, guidance, provision, and protection. Anxiety often distracts us and drives us away from God. We must turn to God in time to ask God to forgive our little faith. He will renew our strength.
Prayer: God, thank You for Your love and everlasting promises. Please make me known that, after casting my anxiety on You, I should not just sit back and relax, but I also have to “be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” (1Pe 5:8) Lord, I want to put my trust in You all the time. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!
