i'm currently working on knitting a scarf to match my carolina blue coat and black hat/gloves.
it wasn't easy to find yarn exactly like i had in mind, but eventually i did.
and when i cast on those 25 times, i thought of the verse,
"cast your cares on Him, for He cares for you."
ever think about that?
when you cast on for a knitting project, you don't want to take it back.
when you cast a fishing pole, you aim to bring it back altered. with something attached to it.
if you need a physical cast, a liquid is transformed into a protective solid.
casting agents for a play find people to pretend to be someone else.
the Bible talks about casting often:
- casting crowns
- casting lots
- perfect love casts out fear
- casting out demons
- better to be cast into the sea than cause a little one to sin
- casting into fire
- casting off all pity
- casting down righteousness
- casting sins to the depth of the sea
is there something you need to cast on Him today and replace/transform it with His peace, His love, His Sovereignty/Holiness......
as for me, i'm casting my cares of clutter that is not mine (and i can't do anything about), school concerns (that are out of my control), fighting against principalities/spiritual forces (oh yes, it is real and we are going through it as a f a m i l y), and timing on the sale of our home (Lord Jesus, come quickly!)
if i can add yours to my prayer list, i would love to. comment or email privately.
you are loved!
jeremiah 31:3

OK, No Fair.
I was all set to do the free trial and then I realized I needed to own an ESV Bible to do it.
Since I can't even bring myself to change from my NAS to my Geneva Bible....I doubt if I'll make the switch to ESV. But the study does look very cool.
