DOES GOD GIVE US MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE? - Does God give us more than we can handle at times? - You might be surprised at the answer. But you can't argue with Scripture! - God assures us that He won’t let us be tempted beyond what we can handle. But He never promises not to give us too much to handle. In fact, God often gives us more pressure, stress, trials and difficulties than we can handle. So whenever we feel overwhelmed, let's remember this truth: God often gives us more than we can handle, but He never gives us more than we can handle when we depend on His strength instead of our own. - I used to tell people that God won’t give us more than we can handle. But that’s not scriptural. God assures us that He won’t let us be tempted beyond what we can handle (1 Corinthians 10:13). But He never promises not to give us too much to handle. In fact, God often gives us more pressure, stress, trials and difficulties than we can handle. In 2 Corinthians 1:8-9, Paul says, “We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself … But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God.” So whenever we feel overwhelmed, let's remember this truth: God often gives us more than we can handle, but He never gives us more than we can handle when we depend on His strength instead of our own. God often gives us more pressure, stress, trials and difficulties than we can handle.

I used to tell people that God won’t give us more than we can handle.

But that’s not scriptural.

God assures us that He won’t let us be tempted beyond what we can handle (1 Corinthians 10:13).

But He never promises not to give us too much to handle.

In fact, God often gives us more pressure, stress, trials and difficulties than we can handle.

In 2 Corinthians 1:8-9, Paul says, “We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself … But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God.”

So whenever we feel overwhelmed, let's remember this truth: God often gives us more than we can handle, but He never gives us more than we can handle when we depend on His strength instead of our own.

I'm Gail Burton Purath. I started Bible Love Notes to give people a minute of Scriptural encouragement in their busy day.

I don't have all the answers, but

since I asked Christ to be my Lord and Savior in 1974, I've been learning from the One Who has all the answers!
I'm still a sinner, a learner, a student who falls down and disappoints God at times. But it's my desire to grow closer to the Lord, day by day, minute by minute.

I need to be challenged, encouraged, corrected and comforted, and I think you do as well...so let's learn together about the love of God--a love that is so vast that we will always be discovering new and wonderful things about it.

1 Corinthians 10:13 English Standard Version

13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
