Description

Many believers through the centuries have felt downcast and disturbed, dejected and in turmoil, anxious and fearful, overwhelmed, even despairing. And they have left us a rich treasury of writings, which can help us in our own struggles. The author's prayer is that this short book will bring its readers peace, comfort, and strength to carry on, through the Word of God and the words of His faithful people.
