Trading My Sorrows - Darrell Evans



I was sitting in Bible Study tonight, and I was reflecting on what was being said about "Walking with God". A few things stuck out in my mind.

God may oppose situations unbeknownest to us . . . Hmm . . . That really struck a chord in me. I was thinking about how I have had opportunities that seemed perfect at the time, but I chalked it up to be not the right time. God may have opposed that situation for it would be a distraction on His path for me. The scripture reference was 2 Corinthians 4:8 - "We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed" (TNIV, 2005). Obviously, Darryl Evans knew what he was doing when he wrote this song, "Trading My Sorrows". It is sprung from the scriptures, as most songs of praise are written. Listen to the words in the video posted above.

No matter what the situation, God is still there with opened arms, waiting. He is waiting for us to continue that journey towards the ultimate prize. Listen to God. Give Him all of your problems and sorrows. He is the only one that can handle it.
