The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure” – 1Cor.10:13, NLT
“Lord, this is too much for one man, I can’t handle it”. “Why me, Lord, and why now?” Ever felt like this or heard someone lamenting this way?
The challenges and pressures of life can bring us to such moments of despair. Only a proper glimpse of God’s love and grace can bring us the right answers and needed comfort.
The trials we face are measured, God tags them our capacity to bear*. His grace is always commensurate with our challenges. And our Father times them just right, accept to His will and purpose – 2Cor.12:19; 1Pet.5:10
So, whenever the tides and storms of life come raging, we must remember that, in His love, mercy and faithfulness, our Lord God allows trials for our good and in the measure we can handle.
