Let me start by saying that I have read many of Max's books, and I've loved all of them. There's just something about the way he writes. I feel like I'm sitting in a sunny cafe drinking coffee and talking with my best friend. There are always so many moments in the books where I see myself.
This is by far my favourite book of his that I've read. In this book, Max uses the Biblical story of Joseph to illustrate how God uses the worst circumstances in our lives for good.
It may take time, and it won't be easy. But God will use the bad in our lives to do good.
Some quotes from the book:
"You'll get through this. It won't be painless. It won't be quick. But God will use this mess for good. Don't be foolish or naive. But don't despair either. With God's help, you'll get through this."
"Joseph would be the first to tell you that life in the pit stinks. Yet for all its rottenness, doesn't the pit do this much? It forces you to look upward. Someone from up there must come down here to give you a hand. God did for Joseph. And at the right time, in the right way, he will do the same for you."
"In God's hands, intended evil becomes eventual good."
If you or you someone you know is going through a storm in their life, then you need this book. It won't solve all your problems, but it will give you the encouragement you need to keep going in spite of them. You can find it online ar www.amazon.ca or www.amazon.com, or it may be available at your local bookstore.
