4 Our preparation for afflictions consisteth in casting all our cares, fears, and troubles of mind about those evils which may befall us, upon God, who hath promised to sustain us under the same, according to that of the Psalmist,1 Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he will sustain thee; i. e. he will comfort and support thee; To this the Apostle Peter likewise exhorteth,2 Cast all your care upon him, for he careth for you▪ and truly Gods caring for us may well take us off from all inordinate, excessive, and distrustful care about our afflictions; and move us to lay the stress of our afflictions ⟨p. 59⟩upon him, considering he careth for us.
