I really liked this book, The Shelter of Gods Promises! In it, Sheila Walsh, shares from her own experiences and shares from them, about the fact that God is always with us! That through His promises, we are protected in life's storms! Former 700 Club host, this is her most recent book. The promises she draws on in the book, focus on Christ, and how in Him, we are protected, in the cleft of the rock, we are safe in Him. That He will cover us, "In the midst" of it all.
I really liked her relation of John the baptist, even though being beheaded for the cause of Christ, still devoting his life in entirety to Him! I think in thick and thin times, we all must come to a point of realizing, we'll serve the Lord, no matter what! Come what may, He is Lord! The promises in His Word, are our Shelter in the times of storm, and there will be those times!
We as she says, are people not OF this world, trusting that His better place for us, will far outweigh the sufferings of this life, that we at times do face. That as we go through, we can cling to those promises, knowing He who promised is faithful! Learning that really, its more a when, not an if, to our going through struggles. I gain comfort from knowing, my Lord is always with me. That His promises are yeah and amen!
Book sneeze provided me with a complimentary copy of this book, as a part of their blogger reviews program! I am thankful for that, as I really enjoyed this book and do recommend it as a strength to the Christian walk!
At times, we may not all agree, with the author, but, her accounts were indeed quite inspired and touching! All we can do in this life, is cling to the promises of God, as our Shelter...in the times of storm!!
