Trust in the Lord-Deen Kemsleyby Tristi Pinkston | More from this Blogger 21 May 2008 10:57 AM
Written in a manner that is appropriate for all Christian denominations, we read of Deen's struggle to feel validated as a person of worth when his colleagues vote not to grant him tenure at Columbia. He feels as though all his work has been in vain, and he wonders if he is even a person of worth. Lost in a fog of despair, he turns to the Lord, and realizes that this is only a bump in the road. God has much, much more in store for him. The world would have us believe that we have no need of God, that we are capable of taking care of ourselves and shaping our own destinies. We need God today more than ever, and Deen takes us on a journey of remembering all the reasons why. God loves us infinitely. He is the Captain of Peace. He brings us solace in our tribulations. He walks beside us when we sorrow. He magnifies our efforts, however humble they might be. He brings us joy when otherwise we might feel sorrow. He blesses us every minute of every day, and then blesses us even more as we receive His gifts with gratitude. He makes the darkness into light on our behalf. He is the only way in which we can truly make it down this perilous path. This book is not very long, but it packs a punch. I came away from it feeling a closer relationship with my Savior and a deeper gratitude for all He has done for me. (This book was published in 2008 by Sweetwater Books.)

In a world that is fraught with messages designed to make us forget our Savior and His mission on this earth, it can be hard to keep things in perspective. We get caught up in our worries, living from moment to moment trying to bring our lives into balance, and only occasionally remembering that we aren't really in control anyway. "
