When Life Gets Tough: Finding Peace and Strength in Times of Trouble

No one is immune to difficult life experiences. The question is: Where do you turn when you face these times? Henry Gariepy draws readers to the comfort and strength from the Psalms with each of these pointed and brief inspirational thoughts. Here's one example from page 43: "Trials, surrendered to God, produce character and golden faith." This book is the perfect gift when you don't know what to say or give a person with an illness, a family crisis or a death. It's a resource that anyone can turn and use repeatedly for encouragement.

Bad things happen even to good people. In a world increasingly busy and stressful it's important to remember that throughout the tough times God is always there. The short chapters and timely devotions allow the reader to focus on finding strength from the One who is the answer. I especially liked the brief thought at the end of each chapter and the steps to finding strength at the end of the book. This is the perfect book for those going through difficult times.
