HAND OF GOD, THE

Are we hapless victims of lifes whims? Are we driven along by some blind and impersonal force? Are we battered by circumstances beyond all control? A thousand times, "No!" says pastor and author Alistair Begg. Instead, Begg says we are the objects of Gods providential care. We reside under His guiding and protecting hand. In this richly textured study of Josephs life, readers will see God at work shaping Josephs circumstances so that he can ultimately redeem and reconcile his family. And theyll see the hand of God in their own lives, lovingly guiding them through their disappointments and struggles to a place of peace. It's an amazing and comforting fact: God rules and overrules in the circumstances of life. Gods authority is neither capricious nor vindictive quite the contrary God works through the circumstances of life to bring about something miraculous, something abundantly good, even out of what we perceive to be our darkest moments. We can entrust the baggage of our past, the fears of our present, and the prospects of our future to the God who cares.
