Why is it easier to obey God than to trust Him? When unexpected situations arise that appear unjust, irrational, or even dreadful, we feel confused and frustrated. Before long, we begin to doubt God's concern for us or His control over our lives. We ask, "Why is God allowing this?" or "What have I done wrong?" As you explore the scope of God's power over nations, nature, and even the details of your life, you'll find yourself trusting Him more completely - even when life hurts.--Back cover.
