Why Does God Do Nothing?
By Tim Keller
Sermon
Disciplines of Distress
Tim Keller | February 16, 1997
Overview
We’re in a series looking at how we experience God. Now we ask, how do you experience God in troubles and distress and difficulties?
There are many texts in the Bible about suffering. Psalm 11 is a short Psalm, and yet we find in it the same principles on how to deal with trouble that we find all through the Scripture. In this psalm, David shows us how to take refuge in God.
Psalm 11 shows us that we need to realize: 1) who is ruling the world, 2) all disasters are examinations, 3) only false foundations can be destroyed by circumstances, and 4) we have to seek God’s face.
