Have you ever felt the onslaught of trouble so much that you just wanted to cover your head in a blanket and hide from everyone and all your troubles? I sure have. Most of us have. As a child, we covered our heads when we were afraid and the desire to do so never leaves us apparently. But even as a child, if someone drew alongside us and wrap their arms around us, we started to feel a little bit better, a little stronger.
Psalm 32:7 says, “You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah.” God doesn’t promise that troubles will never come our way. He does promise that He will preserve us through the troubles so that we will shout praises of His deliverance.
