132. Where is God When It Hurts, Philip Yancey

A comforting, healing guide for coping with hard times.

"If this world ran according to fixed, perfectly fair rules, there would be no true freedom. We would act rightly because of our own immediate gain, and selfish motives would taint every act of goodness. We would love God because of a programmed, inborn hunger, not because of a deliberate choice in the face of attractive alternatives. ...... Faith like Job's cannot be shaken because it is the result of having been shaken"
