Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel) wrote: “I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I’ve bought a big bat. I’m all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!”
My version: “In this world there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead, some come from within, and some come from behind. But I’ve made a Friend, you see. He knows how to handle the troubles for me.”
“Cast all your cares on him because he cares for you.” – 1 Peter 5:7.
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” –
John 16:33.
