God Won’t Give You More Than You Can Bear…

…or will he?  This is a phrase that is often quoted but doesn’t exist anywhere in the Bible. David and I talked about it yesterday and I quoted this article.  I also read this part which I think is incredibly encouraging:

It (1 Corinthians 10:13) does not imply that God won’t let you be stressed beyond what you can bear.
Or challenged beyond your ability.
Or pushed beyond your threshold.In reality, God gives you more than you can bear all the time. On purpose.
It’s only when you can’t bear the load that the strength of Christ kicks in…
and He becomes everything you need and more.
