Last gem I'll post today from Jimmy Gant's testimony (cause I've got to work). He shared how his ordeal caused him to question everything, including common saying among Christians such as, "God won't put more on you than you can bear." His search for answers in scripture revealed that's simply untrue. It's just not in the Bible.

But what is there is this:

"And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.'' Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
-2 Corinthians 12:9

We may very well find ourselves in situations we cannot bear so that our dependence on God is absolute and so His power is apparent, to the glory of His name and the resultant grace (including saving grace) that is imparted to those who witness it.
