The Barn Church & Ministries

Peter's literally writing to people that have a weight they're not designed to carry. Because remember, we are oppressed but not crushed. Anxiety, fear, pressure, responsibility. He says, here's what you do: you humble yourselves and you cast it. That word in the Greek is epiripto. This isn't a simple laying of your anxiety and cares upon Jesus. This word literally means to throw your cares on Jesus.
