Someone once told me that "God never gives you more than you can handle"
This has me thinking. If God is testing us by giving us challenges to overcome, what is the punishment for those who fail? Eternal Damnation? And what are we supposed to be learning from these challenges?
IDK where I'm going with this but It's been on my mind lately. I've been occupied with asking WHY WHY WHY and not a lot of HOW. How do I get over this slump. How am I going to overcome this challenge and get to the other side with all the pretty rainbows and unicorn?
The answer...IDK. Tell me if you do. But I know this one thing .... You can't get too scared of all the whatif's that you are unable to act.
Here are some words of courage to keep you going
"The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear"
Nelson Madela
Nelson Mandela is my hero too. I had a great time working with you on the radio project. It was the best. Is the class over? I'm confused. In any case, did you see my video summary of the class? You are in it lovely lady.

I've always wondered how those who believe that God challenges us distinguish between things which are challenges from God, temptations by Satan, and things which are mere circumstance.
ReplyDeleteThat's something I've always wondered too... Let me know when you find the answer!!!
