David has confidence that God will hear his cry for justice. He wrote, “Cast your cares (burden) on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.” Apostle Peter does too. He wrote, “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7) The concept of “cares” and “anxiety” is like me being given a very heavy load to carry that makes my body scream in pain; one that I can only carry a short distance while my muscles, back, and joints burn in pain.
Jesus invites me to cast my cares on him. He said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30) Knowing this David firmly decided, “But as for me, I trust in you.”
The wicked, bloodthirsty, and deceitful will not have such comforting help as long as they hold onto their evil ways. They will die and go to the pit of corruption. They will not live eternally in paradise with Jesus as I will.
