I WOULD FLY AWAY AND REST

I do not know about you.  But I am getting really

tired of all the misinformation and lies that have 

been fed to the public the last few weeks.  It is 

becoming obvious that the "crises" is being fueled

and used in an effort to bring the whole world under

government control - no matter what country you 

live in - a world controlled by the government.

God's word told us these days were coming, and 

here they are, whether we like it or not.

But being so tired of it all the 55th Psalm made

a real impression on me today.  The Scriptures

quoted are from Psalm 55 in the NLT.

This is king David pleading with God when he

was in a whole lot of trouble by those who hated

him.  His troubles were not the same as yours

and mine, but we can learn where to go by them.

"Listen to my prayer, O God.

Do not ignore my cry for help!

Please listen and answer me,

for I am overwhelmed by my

troubles."  

(Verses 1,2)

And king David wanted out of it just like 

you and I would.

"Oh, that I had wings like a dove;

then I would fly away and rest!

I would fly far away

to the quiet of the wilderness.

How quickly I would escape -

far from this wild storm of hatred."

(Verses 6 - 8)

We know that in time David was delivered

out of these troubles and in the next to last

verse in this chapter he gives us the necessary

clue for the help we need.

"Give your burdens to the LORD,

and he will take care of you.

He will not permit the godly to

slip and fall."  

(Verse 22)
