No fear? No anxiety? No heartache? No way George Roger Lee is well
aware that these are part of life-even for believers in Jesus
Christ. In the author's no-nonsense manner Lee invites readers to
grab a coffee and look at biblical characters as they are, real men
who faced real challenges. Take Job, for instance. Family-wiped
out. Health and vitality-gone. Friends, if you can call them
that-spewing excessive, unhelpful advice. And how about Samson? The
guy who could have taken on any heavyweight champ and beaten him
without breaking a sweat reduced to a weak, blind captive. What
about Saul of Tarsus? Well educated. Devote. Murderer. Yet, God
comes on the scene and restores and blesses Job beyond measure;
empowers Samson for one last feat of superhuman strength; knocks
Saul down to raise him up as Paul the Apostle, whose influence
changes lives to this day. Lee acknowledges that the challenges of
life can be overwhelming. He knows firsthand what it's like to live
from paycheck to paycheck. He has seen what recession does to
business. And, even now, he feels the pain of lost loved ones. Life
in the postmodern world isn't easy. Lee acknowledges there are
times life feels like hanging onto that two ton rodeo bull, trying
to endure those eight eternal seconds or hitting the wall of the
marathon called Life. But even the strongest gale force winds
aren't an excuse for giving up. Readers are challenged to learn
from God's Word, wear out the knees of their blue jeans in prayer,
and call on the Lord to provide the strength to win the race.
Readers are reminded they aren't alone. Jesus does, indeed, love
the working man.
