Troubles
By Daina Dixon
Inspired by a Sunday sermon
You can’t hide from your troubles
for they will find you.
You can’t run from your troubles
for they will run after you.
Trouble is not hard to find
for it’s always looking for you.
If you flew to another country
it would be there waiting for you.
Our troubles are like a huge bag we carry around
Although it’s too heavy we won’t put it down.
Cast your troubles upon the Lord
for He knows what to do,
He will remove all your troubles
if you allow him to.
I would posit that troubles are a reality, but often the Lord allows us to endure them for the purpose of seeing Him more clearly, learning resolve, endurance, and the beauty of hope. Although deliverance is a reality, I would caution the ideology that the Lord will always remove trouble from our lives.
