I have learned to kiss the wave that throws me against the Rock of Ages.' What if we can learn to embrace the nearness of God in the midst of our suffering? What if God's good plan is to work through our trials rather than simply take them away? After living for more than a decade with a debilitating nerve condition in both arms, Dave Furman shows us that God, in his grace, always designs trials for our good. He doesn't minimize the pain, but infuses significance into our suffering, demonstrating that, even when we're tossed to and fro by stormy waves, God is near . . . and that makes all the difference in the world.
