In God Will Use This for Good bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado encourages you, “You’ll get through this. It won’t be painless. It won’t be quick. But God will use this mess for good. In the meantime, don’t be foolish or naive. But don’t despair either. With God’s help you will get through this.”
In this hope-filled booklet, Max will help you:

A small book but a true gem!
Max Lucadoâs âGod Will Use This for Goodâ is an excellent book that I highly recommend. Itâs only 47 pages but the words carry a very strong message for those of us who feel helplessness in our lives. I purchased it because itâs a feeling I have. This book has reminded me time & time again, as I remember what Iâve read or I reread it. Itâs an easy read. The book begins with a prayer which I included pictures of. There are 4 short chapters that follow, a response page & finally with uplifting scriptures. The focus of the book is on Joseph, the Son of Jacob. His story is told in the Bible. His Father adored him above his Brothers which in turn made his Brothers hate him. They hated him so much they threw him in a pit they were certain he would die in. Mr. Lucado writes this book with the focus on strength Joseph had to endure 20 years in this pit, as written in the Bible. At the age of 37 he became much more than a 17yo boy thrown in a bottomless pit. Why? He believed. This story is reflected onto us who face dark days. Mr. Lucado writes that God will get us THROUGH these times. THROUGH is a common word in many scriptures. Itâs further written that âYouâll get through this. It wonât be painless. It wonât be quick. But God will use this mess for good. In the meantime donât be foolish or naive. But donât despair either. With Godâs help you will get through this.â The big question is asked do you trust God? If you do Mr. Lucado makes it as easy as A-B-C. âAdmit your wrongdoing. Believe that Jesus is who he says he is. Commit your life to his cause.â The response page allows you to reflect a prayer & to sign off. Itâs a wonderful ending to a book that carries a powerful message. I feel that message is that God will get me THROUGH my difficult times & I truly believe this because Iâm a child of Jesus, the Son of God. I have certain pages highlighted which I flip to easily. If Iâm in true need I read the entire book. I canât write enough on how much this has benefited me at the cost of under $5.00. I feel if you can relate to anything Iâve written, you will greatly benefit from this book.

Excellent, easy to follow
I was searching for learning more about “hope” in the Bible, however I enjoyed the lesson on the promises of God. Also thanks for a clear explanation of the “Why” of Joseph story and the plan Satan was trying to bring forth. He tried to cancel God’s promises to Abraham and his descendants.

Short, sweet and precise in its message. Felt heartened that God in all of His Omniscience, haven’t and never will leave nor forsake us. Max’s writing is a great source of encouragement and a reminder of our awesome God’s promises.
