If God Loves Me, Why Am I Hurting?
by Daniel L. Segraves

book cover


We all go through difficult moments in life and we become depressed and sometimes question God as to why he would allow us to go through such tough times. We refer to our difficult moments as suffering. The great good God of heaven allows us to suffer as we term it in order to make us strong in our faith in him, to cause us to trust him more. We prove God in our suffering because when he brings us through our suffering, we gain confidence in him. As one song writer states. If we never had a problem, how would we know that God can solve them.

The book goes back & forth between Slaverytime & Freedomtime around the Civil War. The mother is Miss May Belle & daughter is Rue. Miss May Belle is a healer, midwife & conjures curses on people. She teaches her daughter her craft. Rich in descriptions of plantation working & family life. Superstition & fear surround a boy named Bean that Rue birthed with a “caul”. Rue fears the boy & feels the need to protect him from the others on the plantation who accuse the little boy of bringing a deadly sickness to the other children. A preacher comes to the plantation & gets involved with “saving” the sinners,Bean & Rue through baptism. Theres a lot going on in the story between relationships of plantation owner, his daughter Varina, Rue, the preacher & May Belle. This is fiction based on history & I loved it!

The Street

book cover


The book, set in the early 1940's is the story of a young black woman in Harlem trying to raise her son and better their lives amid violence and racial inequalities. It is extremely well written and I was riveted to the story to see the outcome. It is very sad story of the difficulties faced this young woman that prevented her from achieving her goals. It was published in 1946, won a literary grant for the author and has a million copies in print. I highly recommend it.
