A very special friend told me about the "washing machines" he has gone through. I loved the word picture because everyone understands the purpose and process of washing machines. They agitate and clean whatever is put in them. Sometimes they are on gentle cycle and sometimes on heavy duty. Sometimes the detergent is gentle and sometimes it is heavy duty. Washing machine cycles are adjusted to the need. The detergent or cleaning agent is adjusted to the need. The desired result is a thorough cleaning. I hope you can relate to this word picture No doubt you are going through a difficult time right now or you probably wouldn't be reading this book. Most people ask God, "Why?" I hope this book will shed some light upon your situation, no matter what it may be. I pray this book will help you to not only weather the hard times in life, but realize God's redemption in them. "YHWH (the Lord) my God enlightens my darkness " Psalms 18:28 May you be blessed and encouraged
