About this listen

While many believe that the Bible says God won’t give us more than we can handle, this actually isn’t what Scripture teaches. Sure, God won’t let us be tempted beyond what we can handle (1 Corinthians 10:13). But it is clear that we will encounter circumstances in this world that are beyond what we can bear: “We were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, we had the sentence of death within ourselves so that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead” (2 Corinthians 1:8-9). The reason God allows circumstances that are beyond our strength to endure is so that we can learn to depend on the indwelling life of Christ even more.
