Psalm 71

We face a lot of difficulties in life. In verse 20 the psalms states that though God brings us into difficult times he will also raise us up from the despair of those times. Because of God we will see calamities, but also by God we will be revived. God does not desire for us to suffer but he also doesn't want to hide the harshness of this sin damaged world from our eyes. That would be just as wrong. We needs to approach life with the passion to get involved in the suffering we see as well as the trust in God that he will show us the light of his purpose in the darkness of evil.
It took me about 3 minutes to read this psalm.
