Line Up

This book affirms that God remains in control and knows the private lives of people of every age in a dark and troubled world. Whoever appears to hold power, the author presents God as supreme over all. Her message aims to strengthen those who feel powerless and to assure readers that they are not alone, because God cares for each person and will not leave anyone in darkness who anchors themselves in Scripture rather than in the opinions of other people. It also speaks to those who take delight in the Lord's instruction and reflect on it constantly.

Dorothy Ruffin, a native of New Orleans, Louisiana, dedicates her praise to Jesus Christ, whom she confesses as her Lord and Savior. She holds a Master of Divinity from Andrews University and an undergraduate emphasis in Child and Family Studies from Portland State University. Her career includes work as a teacher, a medical assistant and a chaplain, and more than 100 professional leaders have recognized her as a compassionate chaplain. She believes that no one is ever too old or too young to learn. Although she trained in divinity, she presents the book's insights as guidance from the Holy Spirit, whom the Son of God promised to send and who leads believers into all truth. She urges readers to study God's word for themselves, as 2 Timothy 2:15 directs.
