Reacting to Life Situations

Reacting to life situations cannot be avoided. However, the way we react can either bring hope or despair. The choice remains with us. Three main options exist: (1) We can attempt to be noncommittal and try to avoid making a decision, though that thought process itself is reacting; (2) we can react unwisely, and the problem does not get better, only worse; or (3) we can react positively based on discerning God''s will.

The Best Reaction

This third reaction is best, and this book''s aim, using Bible personalities as examples and some personal illustrations from the author''s experiences, is to encourage the reader to react to life''s problems by discerning God''s will as best they can. Make your reaction to life situations a judgment based on prayer and principles discovered in the Bible, and thus find hope. Be encouraged!
