Trusting God Through Troubles & Tears

Book Cover & Preview Text
When we don’t trust God, we won’t be assured of His love because of our doubt or unbelief. Then we lose the comfort of His love. But the truth is, God never stops loving us and wanting the best for us. Our doubts cannot destroy God’s love. It is like the child’s game of Peek-a-Boo. You can put your hands over your eyes and pretend all you want, but the other person is still there. There may be obstacles in the way that block your vision, but that other person still sees you clearly. Likewise, we can totally convince ourselves that God quit loving us, but when we open our eyes, and the obstacles disappear, we see that His love never left us.

If God is so good, why does He allow bad things happen to innocent people? Why should we trust Him when He doesn’t stop earthquakes, floods, and tornados from destroying countries, or prevent terrorists from torturing and murdering Christians?
