Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. If you have ever looked at someone's suffering and thought, "But they were such a good person," this book begins with that question.We naturally want life to make moral sense. Be kind, and kindness should return to you. Live faithfully, and surely faithfulness should count for something. Make wise choices, love God, care for others-and perhaps tragedy should keep its distance.But life does not always work that way.A loving parent becomes seriously ill. A faithful spouse experiences betrayal. A careful driver is struck by someone else's recklessness. Children suffer before they have had the opportunity to make meaningful choices of their own. Meanwhile, people who seem careless, dishonest or cruel can sometimes appear to prosper.When Goodness Does Not Protect You explores one of the most difficult questions of faith and human experience: Why does suffering so often appear disconnected from who deserves it?Drawing on Scripture, everyday experience and the stories of Job, Joseph, David, Jeremiah, Paul and ultimately Jesus Christ, Everson Mpofu examines the hidden assumptions we carry about goodness, suffering and God. The book challenges the idea that living well creates a protective fence around our lives-or that tragedy is reliable evidence of guilt, weak faith or divine punishment. Scripture itself presents faithful people who suffered deeply and warns against treating another person's pain as proof of their moral failure.Yet this is not an argument that goodness is pointless, prayer is meaningless or God is absent.Instead, it asks whether we have sometimes expected goodness to provide a guarantee God never gave us. Good choices matter. Character matters. Faith matters. Prayer matters. But wisdom can influence life without controlling everything that happens within it.Written with Christian conviction while resisting easy answers, When Goodness Does Not Protect You makes room for the questions believers sometimes struggle to say aloud: Where was God? Why didn't He stop it? Was this punishment? Was there a greater purpose? Why was one person spared while another was not? And can I still trust God when I may never understand why something happened?This is a book for anyone who has suffered, watched someone they love suffer, wrestled with unanswered prayer, questioned simplistic explanations of tragedy, or tried to reconcile the goodness of God with the unpredictability of life.Its message is neither cynical nor simplistic: Goodness is not immunity. Faith is not a bargain. Suffering is not always a verdict. And trusting God does not require us to pretend we understand everything He permits.The Christian hope is not that goodness will make us untouchable.It is that suffering does not have the final word.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Here is a unique piece of creative writing that is sensationally intriguing and mind-blasting. If this book does not revitalize your thinking, it will truly lure it in a very fascinating way. It is the best ever combination of basic life principles, self-help, humour and common sense that has something for everyone. Smoothing the Rough Edges is purposefully written in a way that carefully peels off the outer crust of everyday living to expose the inner veins through which the life-blood of our personality flows.

This nerve-wrecking reading experience is crafted and bundled into a 46-chapter outfit which includes subtitles such as these and many more: The state of health of the mind depends on its diet Bad temper is a lift to regrettable heights A relationship is like a personal account Failed ambition is a life behind bars Pride is what you live to regret or regret to leave Don't put a stolen roof over your house Friendship - an old thing that survived trials of all times Hope is a dream that you can live and believe My child, this is food for your thought Temptation is spying on our conscience.…
