UNTROUBLED?

“In this world you will have trouble.”

Well, Jesus, I certainly know about that!

When troubles come I usually fall flat!

“Let not your heart be troubled.”

When troubles come in their course,

Troubles troubling, my heart comes apart.

First troubles come, then my troubled heart.

Just like the cart comes after the horse.

Should I be like Noah who sent out a dove?

He searched for dry land. An olive branch he found.

For what do I search when troubles abound?

God’s Larger Story found; peace from heaven above.
