First letter of Peter 5:7

when you have cast all your cares (anxieties; every worry) on him – for he cares for (he cares about what concerns) you. [Ps. 55:22]
[The word for worry, Gk. merimna, is used for worldly cares that choke the word that the sower sows, see Matt. 13:22. The verbs "humble" and "cast" in verses 6 and 7 belong together. We humble ourselves before God by casting our cares on him. Trying to carry our burden ourselves is rather false humility, which before God is pride. The Greek verb epiripto occurs only here and in Luke 19:35, where it says that people "cast" their cloaks on the donkey that Jesus then sat on when he rode into Jerusalem, ready to be sacrificed. When we cast what weighs us down and divides us onto Jesus, he takes it all the way to the completed work of the cross. "Cast" appears in both instances in the aorist tense, which expresses a punctual, i.e., single and momentary action. Once we have cast all our self-centered concerns on the Lord, we do not need to take them back and cast them again! By humbling ourselves, God will, when the time is right, lead us on to the position he has intended for us in his kingdom (verse 6), see also James 4:10.]
