Bag om In the Hands of a Fiercely Tender God
Is it possible to face the darkest days of life with hope and joy and purpose? The life of Colleen Chao was bright and beautiful--and brimming with possibility. She was talented, confident, and ambitious. So, Colleen never imagined that she'd swim through two decades of deep-water anxiety and depression. She didn't guess that she'd marry late, suffer years of chronic pain and illness, and give birth to a child with health complications. And never in her life did she imagine hearing the words: "Cancer. Stage four. Terminal." In the Hands of a Fiercely Tender God is born of the suffering that on its own could have crushed Colleen. Her pain, instead, opened her eyes to eternal realities and has wrought a soul of indestructible joy. How do we suffer long and well? What do we do when we feel cheated? How do we face pressing darkness? Colleen shares a precious devotional gift with the suffering soul: thirty-one days of wisdom, hope, and encouragement. Drawing upon stories from past saints, rich truth from Scripture, and habits that build joyful endurance, Colleen helps fellow sufferers embrace one day at a time. She teaches us to marvel, to be caught up in the love of Jesus, --the One whose suffers with us--and she plants us firmly In the Hands of a Fiercely Tender God.
