Inhaltsangabe

Why did this happen to me? Why now? What did I do to deserve this? It seems so unfair! Th ese expressions are familiar; the suff ering and trials that prompt such sentiments are universal human experiences. But where are the answers? Th e wounds of the soul require more than the Band-Aid philosophies off ered by the world; they call for a source of healing that only God can provide.Strength through Adversity explores the healing principles that God has given to help us understand and endure adversity. Addressing the universal Why? questions, Bent L. Top discusses three main causes of suff ering man's agency, natural law, and authentic acts of God and their relationship to the plan of salvation. Perhaps even more important, this book deals with the universal What? question What can I do to fi nd peace and consolation? With insights from scriptures and modern-day prophets many of whom have known great personal suff ering in their own lives you will fi nd powerful insights for overcoming setbacks and experiencing genuine growth in adversity.
