Just As I Am: The Autobiography of Billy Graham. This book inspires me to trust in God, knowing that I will have trials and tribulations in my life, but to depend on God to get me through.

In one part of the book, Dr. Graham wrote, "One reason God allows times of difficulty and suffering to come into our lives is so that we will not take Him for granted but will remember in a deeper way His faithfulness to us and our dependence on Him."

In another part, he wrote, "Someone asked me recently if I didn't think God was unfair, allowing me to have Parkinson's and other medical problems when I have tried to serve Him faithfully. I replied that I did not see it that way at all. Suffering is part of the human condition, and it comes to us all. The key is how we react to it, either turning away from God in anger and bitterness or growing closer to Him in trust and confidence."
