A Straight Line
“Life is not a straight line leading from one blessing to the next and then finally to heaven. Life is a winding and troubled road. Switchback after switchback. And the oint of biblical stories like Joseph and Job and Esther and Ruth is to help us feel in our bones (not just know in our heads) that God is for us in all these strange turns. God is not just shoing up after thr trouble and cleaning it up. He is plotting hte course and managing the trouble siwth far-reaching purposes for our godd and for the glory of Jesus Christ.” -John Piper, A Sweet and Bitter Providence: Sex, RAce and the Sovereignty of God 18×36
