This book is borne of deep pain and confusion. Pastor Easley suffered from serious throat cancer. During his battle he wrestled with the question, is God truly Sovereign. He committed himself to the answer of ‘yes.’ This devotional book shares 30 lessons he learned as he applied Scripture to his condition. His insights are comforting and applicable to any life issue. I would have been happy to read another month or more.

This book shares a seasoned pastor’s wisdom and insight after/while dealing with a throat cancer diagnosis. It also uses ten historical figures from the Bible to drive home the fact that God is Sovereign. Anything we have, we have because He gives us. Anything we don’t have is for God’s glory, too.

The author shares his experiences and insights during his battle with cancer. Such adversity can drive a person to despair, or it can drive a person to depend all the more on the sovereignty of God. Mr. Easley does a good job of demonstrating what dependence on God's sovereignty looks like in the midst of life's trials by examining how various biblical characters responded to adversity in their lives. This book is a must-read for anyone facing trials, or in other words, for all of us.
