The straw that breaks...

Have you ever thought, "This is it! I'm going to crack! I'm going to explode! I'm not going to make it!" and then you make it through?

Although God is not the author of trials and temptations, He has the final say over the chaos in this broken world and promises that we will never be tempted beyond what we can bear because he will also provide a way out so that we can endure it.

Sometimes it feels different. Sometimes it feels like we won't make it. Then we find reserves we didn't know were there: prayers are answered, inspiration is provided, the right person with the right advice arrives, we get a new perspective or the problem diminishes.

God is faithful. Not only does He know our limits, but He also helps us to stand when the limits are pushed. We need God's help to withstand the pressures surrounding us. If we rely on ourselves, our money, or our friends, our potential is not the same as when we rely on God.
