I was having a discussion with my sister-in-law recently. She is not yet a believer but I think she is seeking the Lord. She had heard someone state that God won't give you more than you can handle. This may be true, but there should be something added to it.
God won't give you more than you can handle, with His help. If you are trying to handle everything in your own strength, then it may in fact be more than you can handle.
"I can do everything through him who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13
The key to this verse is through him. We can try with all our might, all our strength, to handle everything that life throws our way. But if we are not funneling it all through Christ, we sometimes do not have the ability to overcome.
Christ has overcome, through Him we can overcome as well.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by all life is throwing at you? Run to Him, cry out to Him. Pour your heart out to Him - He will listen, He will respond.
He loves you.
In His Grace...
