Cast Thy Burden Upon the Lord

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
oung daughter were in dire circumstances and were cast entirely upon the Lord for their needs.
There came a day when they were without food or money, so they both knelt before the Throne of Grace and cast their burden upon the Lord. When they arose from their knees, they felt led to search the house to see if they could find a few coins.
The father thought of an old trunk in the attic and immediately went to it. In it he found a very old purse, but it was empty. He went downstairs to look further, but felt compelled to go back to the purse in the trunk. When he did, he tore the lining from the purse, and there, underneath, found enough money to buy food for them.
We can all imagine the joy and happiness shared by the father and his daughter that day.
“Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.” Psalms 55:2222Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. (Psalm 55:22).
