I have always been confused when people say, “God never gives us more than we can handle.”
The truth is that there IS more than we can handle by ourselves here on earth, so we must to turn to Him! We can’t do this alone. We think we can, in our arrogance—but no.
I heard one of our pastors tell her story. She went through many hardships as a child. She shared a plaque that was in her mother’s house as she was growing up.
“The will of God will never lead you where the Grace of God cannot keep you.”
That’s more like it. This hard stuff I am enduring right now is an opportunity to look for the grace—the free gift. Then we are amazed when God weaves it all together so masterfully to bless us in this tapestry of life. A life undeserved. There are no degrees of grace.
He will reveal what we need to know, when we need to know it if we trust.
Grace—unmerited favor.
A free gift.
Thank you, God.
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
