A Jewish man, who was known to like liquor, explained that he drank only to drown his troubles.
“After you drown them, why do you continue to drink?” he was asked.
“You don’t know my troubles,” he sighed. “My troubles are excellent swimmers. I try to drown them, but they swim right up again!”
You can’t drown trouble with liquor because that only multiplies it. Trouble is a major part of the human experience and no one can escape it. However, God does offer some comfort.
Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.
The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; He knows those who take refuge in Him.
Give it some thought.
