| The Time of Trouble |
| “Call upon Me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Me” (Psalm 50:15). |
| Here are four statements that are good to say from our hearts when we are in times of trouble: |
| First: He brought me here; it is by His will I am in this difficult place; in that I will rest. |
| Next: He will here keep me in His love, and give me grace in this trial to behave as His child. |
| Then: He will make the trial a blessing — teaching me the lessons He means me to learn, and working in me the grace He intends for me. |
| Last: In His good time, He can bring me out again — how and when, only HE KNOWS. |
| In short, say I AM HERE: |
| 1. By God’s appointment. |
| 2. In His keeping. |
| 3. Under His training. |
| 4. For His time. |
| And remember, “In the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion: in the secret of His tabernacle shall He hide me; He shall set me up upon a rock” (Psalm 27:5). |
