From Failure to Victory

Book excerpt: Have you ever experienced crises, brokenness and failures in your life? Adrian Ghiduc has written a book that passionately addresses the catastrophic moments of suffering, pain, and loss that most every believer will experience at some point in their life. Having gone through the experience of walking with his mother through her struggle with cancer, which "she fought bravely to the end and won," he transparently shares firsthand the emotions his readers have encountered or will encounter. Ghiduc's goal in writing this book was to write a message of hope for those who are in the midst of suffering, depression, failure and feel hopeless in their situations. Using easily understood objects like puzzle pieces, watchtowers, a letter, orange trees, a slingshot, seeds, a train ride, stones, and bones, Adrian Ghiduc sheds light on the unseen plan of God in some of life's most difficult lessons. God chooses to use people as instruments to fulfill His plans. He uses the diligence and obedience of a bitter widow, a prisoner, a barren wife, a prophet, and a judge to bring about His unseen plans. The author draws on his knowledge of history and shares insights from the lives of unsung heroes to reveal His unseen plans. Stories about broken legs, stolen horses, and daring escapes all show the reader that God is working-even when His children cannot see His unseen plans. Instead of wondering and wandering in the land of failure, learn to trust in His unseen plans and live a life of victory. God can turn your failure into a great victory!
