HARD TIMES

HONEST TRUTHSAgainst All

Odds

Easy to miss or avoid the Honest

Truth

The Honest Truth: Even

though nothing can separate us from God we can

still feel separated!

In part because of misquotes:

God never gives you more than you can handle.

It is a test.

It is your cross to

bear.

Leads us to believe that we have been

singled out for hardship

1 Corinthians 10:13But God is faithful; He will

not suffer you to be tempted beyond that

which ye are able to bear, but with the temptation will also make a way to escape, that ye may be

able to bear it. KJ21

All you need to remember is that God

will never let you down; he’ll never let you be

pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through

it. The Message

13 No temptation has seized you that isn’t

common for people. But God is faithful. He won’t allow you to be tempted

beyond your abilities. Instead, with the

temptation, God will also supply a way out so that

you will be able to endure it.

CEB

When we feel separated:

•Call out to God•Seek a community of faith to support you•Allow others to pray for you •Allow others to help you

Psalm 68:19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior,who daily bears our burdens.

With God we beat

the odds!
