We are used to talking about God's favor, and many times we relate this term "favor" with good things, optimal health and a lot of happiness. However, we rarely reflect on what Brian Jones proposes in this book. The favor of God can manifest itself in a limitation, in an illness, in an answered prayer, in an intervention of the grace of the Lord.
The favor of God is a deep subject but the author explains us not in a technical way but in a practical and friendly way. It is their experiences, struggles and thoughts that help us identify our own search for God's favor.
The book is divided into 10 chapters that deal with issues such as problems, diseases, God's provision and how in all this we can see the favor of God.
Some phrases that impacted are:
"For those who believe in Jesus Christ there is no death and no sorrow that is no mixed with hope"
"Obscurity is a sign of God's favor, not a sign of his anger"
"We need to understand that something he does gives us exactly what we want"
I recommend this book for all those who have a difficult and stormy season. You will discover that the favor of God is within your reach in Christ Jesus.
Thanks to IVP for the digital copy of this book to review.
