I am sure many lost souls in hell right now would cry out to preachers and writers if they could: Oh, why did you not tell us more about the horrors of hell? Why did you not strike such fear into our hearts by your realistic description of hell that we would have made greater efforts to avoid it?...Why did you spare our feelings in a matter of such eternal moment? Oh, why did you not make hell a thousand times hotter than you did, then perhaps we would not be here today?

Do I refuse to see God’s hands in the struggles and trials of my daily life? Am I afraid to trust Him? (Excerpted from Pondering Tidbits of Truth, Volume VI)
