Review "This is a great little book on the place of Lament in the life of a believer, as well as how God uses the difficult times in our lives. Much more than a simple grin and bear it theology, it gets into the nitty gritty and shows that there will be times that we feel that we are almost completely pressed out, and that isn't all bad if we handle it well." - Rocky Woolery "Chapter 6 alone makes the book worth purchasing." - Alistair "I found this to be a very readable and helpful analysis of Psalm 88.
