Why settle for success when you can have God's favor? Deep down everyone wants God’s best for their lives—also known as God's favor. Unfortunately, most of the time we don't feel "favored" when we're being "blessed." It takes perspective to recognize what's going on. God often uses confusing, painful, and counterintuitive measures to bring us his best in our lives. God is always working for our good, even though we may not recognize it at the time. We want immediate success and easy positive results. God wants long-term transformation. Pastor Brian Jones weaves together stories and Scripture to help readers find God's favor in their own lives.
