About Straining At The Oars
Do you ever feel as though you are working hard, but getting nowhere? Do you ever feel stuck? Do you want to give up? Are you exhausted? Is there a sense that something is keeping you back from getting to the Promised Land?
Have you tried everything you can to find purpose and value? Have you stopped believing that you will never rise above your circumstances? Do you stop thinking you will ever experience the abundant life Christ came to give to those who follow Him.
Don't give up. Don't throw in the towel. You're not alone. Everyone has moments, times, or even seasons of what Jesus' disciples experienced in Mark 6 when as they were "straining at the oars", "making headway painfully". You do not need to continually struggle in this life, even if the "storms of destruction" keep coming. You are not alone. God is with you.
In this book, you will be invited to take a moment and consider what it is that is causing you to strain at the oars. You will be encouraged to set down the oars, to rest in God, to trust in the person of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you as you navigate your personal storms of destruction.
In this insightful new book, author and pastor Bill Williamson draws a direct correlation between the circumstances life throws at us and how we can find peace - and victory - in the midst of life's storms.
