Quote:
“ I
know God wouldn't give me anything I couldn't handle. I just
wish he didn't trust me so much.” Mother Therese
Life Scriptures:
Isaiah 40:28-31:
Why do you say, O Jacob, and
complain, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD; my
cause is disregarded by my God"?
Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is
the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never
grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his
understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to
the powerless. Even youths will become weak and tired, and
young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in
the Lord will find new strength. They will soar on wings
like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will
walk and not faint. (NLT) |
