John 16:33
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
Trouble, oh we got trouble
Right here in River City!
With a capital “T”
That rhymes with “P”
And that stands for Pool
(Ya Got Trouble from The Music Man)
Raise your hand if you don’t have trouble. That is what I thought, not a single hand. We shouldn’t be surprised by trouble. Jesus told us we would have trouble. Just because you are Christian, does not exempt you from the world. Let’s face it, our world is in a lot of trouble all the time. Marvel and DC together couldn’t produce enough superheroes to save the day.
So what do we do? Do we let our life get swept up and dragged down by the trouble? Do we curl up in the fettle position and suck our thumb? Or do we call on the one superhero that can save the day? Jesus won’t always take away the trouble, but He will provide the peace to get you through it. So take heart! Call on the superhero that has already overcome the world!
Lord, I need a hero and You are the only One that can help! ~amen
