He Hid Me To Heal Me

Why do we endure the trials we do in life? What are God's purposes for periods of waiting and times of uncertainty? These were questions author Antwain Braggs pondered regularly in life, especially while he was struggling with drug addiction, faced oppression in ministry and had general concerns about where his life was heading. Knowing these are frequently asked questions about God and waiting others may ask, Antwain presents his findings of the answers through God's promptings in his new book, He Hid Me to Heal Me. He begins his book by standing on the solid truth that God's will is good, acceptable and perfect: always on time and always beneficial to believers and non-believers. With the confirmation of this belief, Antwain goes deeper into the intimate inquiries people have about what God has chosen for their destinies, utilizing the life stories of King David, Moses and others of the Bible. When King David was only a shepherd boy challenging a giant, he didn't know what lay ahead in the future; but he sought the counsel of God and saw through His perspective the victory. He may have drifted from his path here and there, but David beat with the heart of God and trusted the whisper of God to know he was in protective hands. Antwain also discusses his own journey in faith with God, seeing that he had to release past insecurities and believe plans to adopt the path God had ordained him to traverse. He Hid Me to Heal Me is to enlighten readers to the understanding that sometimes God places us in trials, in waiting periods, in complicated situations: not to inflict harm or judgment, but to prepare us for what awaits in His pre-conceived purpose for each of us. Why do we endure? Because God has great plans ahead.
