The SC Dept. of Public Safety Sent a Grieving Atheist a Book Urging Her to Follow Christ

The book is laden with Bible passages and other overtly religious messages such as:
 • “Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint; O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony. My soul is in anguish. How long, O LORD, how long? Psalm 6:2-3”
• “Even if your hold on God seems to slip at times — don’t worry. God has a firm hold on you!”
• “There is nothing we do to make God love us more. There is nothing we can do to make God love us less.”
• “What God does is not always immediately evident to human eyes.”
• “Stand still, and whisper God’s name, and listen. He is nearer than you think.”

An entire chapter of the book is dedicated to the subject, “If God Seems Far Away.” The chapter urges its readers to pray to God and not to lose faith.
