Assuming you are passing through suffering, and never intended to stay, the essay topics cover real life issues to help you while you are there: God’s presence with you and faithfulness to you, his plan and hope for you, his protection in spiritual warfare; and then you reaching out to others and personal responsibility for your actions in the midst of the pain. Crisis Survival Rations is a hope-filled journey.”
