Title: Reaching Out, Trusting God
Author: Brenda Marie Hoffman
Genre: Christian devotional
Plot: As Christians we’re told that we can live a joy-filled, purposeful life with Christ as our guide. Seeing miracles along the way is a true blessing that’ll help solidify our faith. However, we shouldn’t believe that because “we don’t have enough faith” we won’t be healed, or we’re destined to be poor or unsuccessful. Unfortunately, this is what some Christians tell us that it means to trust in God.
With these words filling our head it’s no wonder that when something doesn’t work out like we expect it to we believe it’s because we don’t have enough faith. This results in us believing that we aren’t loved by God or it may cause us to doubt if we’re really a Christian.
All these things are taken into consideration here in this devotional. Through exploring these things we’ll arrive at a deeper understanding of what it really means to trust God.
Rating: 4.0 – A good book to lead you to a deeper trust in God
