Oh, that I had wings like a dove; then I would fly away and rest! (Psalm 55:6)
Flee or Trust | In the heart of every challenge we face, a crucial question arises: Do we flee from our problems, or do we trust in the Lord to guide us through them? The psalmist perfectly captures this sentiment, reflecting on the universal desire to escape life’s trials.
Two Paths: Flight or Faith
When we encounter difficulties, our response reveals much about our character and faith. We often choose between two methods: flight, where we attempt to evade our problems, or faith, where we stand steadfast and trust in the Lord’s guidance.
Consider the story of Jonah. When God called him to Nineveh, Jonah ran in the opposite direction. His flight to Tarshish didn’t solve his problems; instead, it magnified them. It wasn’t until Jonah obeyed God’s command that he found strength and witnessed miracles in God’s name.
The lesson here is profound: There is no place on earth where we can escape our problems completely. Escaping them only multiplies our responsibilities. We cannot run from ourselves or the qualities that God wants to refine in us through these challenges.
Obedience Over Evasion
At one time or another, we all face the temptation to flee from our problems. Even Jesus was tempted in the desert, yet He chose obedience over evasion. He accepted God’s will and fulfilled His divine purpose, showing us that when we trust God completely, He supports and helps us through our trials.
