I am not a Christian, so the teachings of this book are not exactly similar to my faith. But I believe that like with any religious book, the central message is one: have faith in God, believe in His grace to sail through bad times.

The purpose of this book was to make us have utmost faith in god and it fulfilled its purpose. The lesson I learned is to accept the presence of god’s will in everything. And keep my complete trust in him.

I don't know if I learned anything new, but it is always helpful to be reminded that God's grace is infinite, and that He never presents us with a burden too big for us to bear.

What I learned from this book is, no matter the ugly situation I find myself, I should always remain steadfast in God and never deviate from my faith in believing in his existence and Grace.

Having faith and complete trust in God is key. God grace is infinite and He is never far away when we need him. He always comes through for us.

God is God in the good and dark times. His love for us never wanes. Praying for strength and having faith in God to help us pull through challenging times is paramount.

From this book, I learned that whatever difficulties we find ourselves, we should put our faith in God and know that his grace will always see us through.

Sometimes we don't have to learn anything new. Sometimes we can just be reminded of things we forget. I think for many myself included that is the fact with this book.

Yes but as humans, we make mistakes, we doubt, we blame, we stray from faith. So we should all be so lucky to never deviate from our faith.
