A beautiful writer and teacher whom I greatly respect said to a group of sincere disciples one day, “God never gives anyone more than they can handle.” With all due respect, I have to say while that is a lovely and comforting thought, it simply isn’t true. God is committed that his sons and daughters learn how to live a supernatural life, drawn from supernatural resources. How will he teach us to do that? He will put us in circumstances that are far beyond our natural capabilities. Dear friends, he will put you in circumstances that look a heck of a lot like your life right now.
