Thank you to Justin Taylor for posting yesterday on Nancy Guthrie’s new book, Be Still, My Soul: Embracing God’s Purpose and Provision in Suffering.
I highly recommend watching Justin’s interview with Nancy Guthrie. She has experienced profound suffering herself in her family, and proclaims God as good and sovereign.
I look forward to reading this book, and probably the others she has written as well!
This video interview reminded me of of time when our son was hospitalized. While on the epilepsy unit, we became acquainted with a mother whose two children where diagnosed with a rare, mitochondria disorder. This disease will claim both of her children’s lives by the time they reached 15. It was sobering to think about other people in their pain even as we we were in the midst of dealing with our own grief. It seemed that there truly are others who “have it worse” than us. I am anxious to read this book.
