The Underestimated God

As everyone knows I'm a big fan of  Girl Talk blog. The other day they had this quote from Ligon Duncan at the T4G Conference. The quote really spoke to me, so I listened to the whole message. Although specifically targeted at Pastors it has something to say to every one of us about how we respond to disappointment and how we react when good things we want don't happen.

Listen and be both blessed and immensely challenged.

"Don't underestimate God. Don't underestimate His ruthless compassionate gracious commitment to His glory or His commitment to your everlasting joy and good. He will pursue you graciously and ruthlessly and rip out the idols of your soul that would otherwise consume you. He is working for your joy and your good even when you cannot perceive it and have ceased to be able to feel anything anymore."
