Psalms 55 — Cast Thy Burden Upon the Lord
Summary
Give ear to my prayer, O God. Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest. For it was not an enemy that reproached me; but it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance. We took sweet counsel together. Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

Key doctrines
Casting the Burden on the Lord
Psalm 55:22 · 1 Peter 5:7 · Matthew 11:28
Application
Verse 22 is the daily action. Throw the burden; do not carry what He has offered to bear.
Christ in this chapter
Christ's yoke is easy (Matthew 11:30). The burden cast on the Father lands at the foot of the cross.
Cast. The verb is forceful — throw. Do not gradually transfer; throw it on Him.
Sustain. Not remove necessarily; sustain through. The burden may stay; the bearing is His.
