CAN YOU HANDLE IT?
It's a comforting thought isn't it? No matter what you are going through, don't worry! "God will never give you more than you can handle."
It sounds good. It's encouraging. The only problem is it isn't in the Bible.
In fact, the Bible is filled with stories of all kinds of people who were given more than they could handle. Moses, Joshua, Elijah, Job, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Mary, Martha, Paul... --all of them had more than they could handle. They complained. They groaned.
Sometimes they prayed that God would kill them. It's hard to reconcile their experiences with the common cliché that we're looking at this weekend.
I hope you can join us as we examine the myth and hold it up against the truth of God's Word!
Embracing the journey,
Pastor Rick
