Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

You must cast both your heart and your care upon God's back, for He has a strong neck and shoulders, and can well carry them. And, moreover, He bids us cast them upon Him, and the more we cast on Him, the more He is pleased, for He promises that He will bear your burden for you, and everything that concerns you. -- Blessed Martin Luther, *Day by Day* p. 340 (Sermon from 1544)
