Book Cover & Preview Text
Sometimes life's circumstances throw us a curve ball that are so severe we are tempted to walk away from the plate on the first miss. I am talking about problems that are so difficult, so tedious and grievous there seems to be no way out! The source of the problem could be finances, family crisis or health. No matter what it is, there seems to be no answer and no help available. This is precisely the position the apostle Paul wrote about in Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him..." He starts out talking about the commonality we all have of being in the same boat, or in this case, groaning creation. But then he narrows the scope a little and points at the individual who is against the wall with no where to turn and gives the following advice. When you don't k now how to pray, get out of the hole, and recognize the position you have in faith. For that position of faith provides you One who is interceding on your behalf. He continues by telling us that this intercession is according to the perfect will of God, and you can be assured that "all things work together for the good of those who love Him." Remember He said, "You will keep in perfect peace him who is steadfast because he trust in Thee!" Isaiah 26:3
