1 Peter 5:6

Cast Your Cares on Him

5Young men, in the same way, submit yourselves to your elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”6Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you.7Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.
