BOOK REVIEW-4 WHERE HAVE YOU GONE GOD-JENNIFER REES LARCOMBE (By Ms. Dolly)

Every Christian goes through a period at some time in their life when their relationship with God becomes dull or painful. For some, it happens at times of great success; others find that difficulties with health, relationships or career cause them to feel that God has abandoned them. Many cannot find an appropriate reason for their state.

 “When we believe God answers prayer miraculously, it makes tragedies of life harder to accept,” says Jennifer, who describes her own experience of chronic illness in her bestselling book, Beyond Healing. Before writing, ‘Where Have You Gone, God?’ She contacted over a thousand people who, at some time in their Christian lives, felt far from God. Their experience, and the wisdom of Christians down the ages, combines to make a book of comfort and hope. ‘There are no easy answers. Spiritual deserts are terrible, but they pass and through them, our love for God is so often strengthened enormously’.

Sometimes we feel so hard to continue on, when we feel so distant from God, we doubt, we question, but do we do the same thing when the sun doesn’t shine??? As you read the book, you will understand that God does everything for a purpose and by every step He draws you more closer to Him. You will agree with Naomi as she says,

I believe in the sun, even when it’s not shining

I believe in love even when I cannot feel it

I believe in God even when He is silent.

BOOK REVIEW-3 WEAK PEOPLE MIGHTY GOD-Terry Virgo (By Ms. Dolly)

Everyone has their own limitations, no one is perfect, but to some this is so much they can take. People around always overlook, or you yourself say that you are not clever or bright and virtually have no qualifications. But there is god news: In this book, “Weak People Mighty God” Terry Virgo tells that God is not interested in people who are talented or strong, but God looks for people who are weak and uses them by His power. If you feel like you’re a fool, take heart, for the Lord says,

 “God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;”

                                                                                                                        I Corinthians 1:27

Terry Virgo leads a ministry called New Frontiers International, a ministry dedicated to building up the lives of Christian men and woman in many lands. In this book he chooses three people from the bible and shows how God can use us in our weakness. David, Elijah and Jonah were three ordinary people. They did not set out to be heroes of the faith. Nor were they always ready to let God move in their lives. But He did, and as a result they were transformed.

If you are conscious of your own limitations, your fallibility, you have a choice. You can give up and resign yourself to a lifetime of ineffectiveness- or you can learn from people like David, Elijah and Jonah, who discovered that it is the weak in whom God chooses to display his strength and reveal his glory.

This book is an invitation to respond to the grace of a God who will never fail you or forsake you.
