Description
A look at the news suggests world affairs are out of control. We get discouraged because it seems that the gospel is not advancing as quickly as doctrinal error is. And in our personal life, we wonder how we will endure the trials that engulf us. In this booklet, David B. McWilliams addresses these discouraging aspects of life in a fallen world and reminds us of the strength we find when we confess the wonder of the sovereign, incomprehensible God.
“Trials and tribulations of one sort or another crowd our personal lives, while corruption, conflict, and catastrophe command the world scene. Where is God in all this? Asking the question is fair enough; answering demands caution. McWilliams biblically answers the question by directing us to the absolute and supreme sovereignty of God, perhaps the most comforting truth that God has revealed about Himself—at least with reference to living in this world. McWilliams makes it clear that God is in control of all things: the big issues of the world, as well as the seemingly bigger issues of our lives.”
