Thoughts and Opinions of a sinner saved by grace
1 Timothy 1:15
The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.

The book he mentions called a Place For Weakness was originally called Too Good to be True. In it Horton deals with suffering,pain and the theology of the cross . Get it,read it and share it.
I read that book, under it's original title. I highly highly highly (that might be enough highlys, maybe) recommend it. It is such an antitode to the "power of positive thinking crap" that shuts people down when they're suffering. I have actually had people tell me, when I had cancer, that everything would be fine if I just thought positively. So, what happens if you do and then one day you wake up in a really foul, negative mood and you drop dead. Is it your fault? Thankfully, we're not God and it doesn't work that way. Buy it and read it, ASAP. Then pass it around, you'll be glad you did. Love you, Mrs Reg
