Hinds' Feet on High Places (1955)

Rating:★★★★
Category:Books
Genre: Religion & Spirituality
Author:Hannah Hurnard
haha, re-read this book some weeks ago. It's just so amazing how the Lord will lead me to read certain books to learn or re-visit certain lessons that I've learnt before, in order for me to bring words to those in need of His wisdom.

I didn't realise that this book was written so long ago, till I check the info online. Still it is a good, relevant and much needed book, bringing to mind on why God allows suffering and pain to come into believers' life, and why they aren't to be shunned. Many a times, people tend to look for quick-fixes to problems and abhors suffering. Well, I'm not a masochist or anything, but I do know that I tend to grow more as a person, when He puts me through tough times.

One take-away I have from this book is that "bruised corn will not be crushed forever". Sounds obscure? Go read Isaiah 28:27-28, (KJV).
