Trouble Hunter
Don't make mountains out of mole hills,
And strife and trouble seek.
Don't look for hidden meanings,
In the words that people speak.
Don't sit among the ashes,
Of bygone scenes of stife,
Stirring coals of anger,
To bring them back to life.
You don't have to look for trouble,
It finds you in time.
Seek instead to be content,
Your character refine.
Let the past stay buried,
Unless there be some boon,
T'will make your burden lighter,
And heal an open wound.
"GRUDGE NOT ONE AGAINST ANOTHER BRETHREN, LEST YE BE CONDEMNED."
James 5:9
