When God doesn’t make sense… Part Three

BOOK REVIEW: WHEN GOD DOESN’T MAKE SENSE: Holding on to your faith during the hardest times: DR. JAMES DOBSON: 1993: 250 PAGES

• Establish your foundation not on ephemeral emotions but on the authority of the written word. Our feelings about His inaccessibility mean nothing! His word is more reliable than our spooky emotions.
• Don’t lean on your own ability to understand, and most importantly don’t lose faith. I believe this is the most aggravating part of the whole saga, cos as humans we rationalize everything, and when we don’t understand things, we are thrown into disarray. We should not try to understand everything, we should aim to trust completely.

Who would you rather be? Mark Zuckerberg, Beyonce, RMD, Dangote, Folorunsho Alakija, Oprah, or just anyone else other than yourself?

Another opportunity to learn how to stand firm as a child of God, not just for the sake of being called a Christian – Tosan A.
