Good morning friends,
HAPPY MAY DAY
It may not be bright and beautiful here in Minnesota today but i'm beginning to 
think it is totally and state of mind anyway.
When I was little i went to Nonies house (a friend of my family) and
 made May baskets every year.
Such great memories.
It is now starting to freeze here in Mankato, we are supposed to get up to 9 inches of snow today and it is reaking havoc on the psyche of us here. One day it is hot next it snowed then hot and on and on. 
Today I seem a little more vulnerable to a messed up psyche, this new round of doctor visits 
has really rattled me and although they are not life threatening, but none the less hard.
I have had it in my mind a long time to investigate the saying " God won't give us more than we can handle" i can't find it anywhere phrased like that and I have a call into our pastor. so we will see how that works out. But you know there are days I question this stretching and my endurance. So today I am resting and contemplating the universe.
Be blessed this May day and give someone an extra treat today, send a may basket or just a note to encourage someone.
Love you all
Suszi

That line about what God will give you is nowhere in the Bible...

I believe God allows those kinds of things to keep us close and very dependent on Him. I believe that statement is missing the most important part: "with Him" He will never leave us, no matter what is going on. Only He can give us the peace no one else can.Praying for you! You're not alone, even though sometimes it seems like it.

Yes we have had a very interesting discussion which included several calls to the pastor and many different views and also much Biblical referencing to discover if it is worded that way or if that is a misrepresentation of the Bible the verse we found closet is 1 Corintians 10:12-13 Mia your right it isn't said like that, but Jill is correct in that He gives us the tools to handle the trials and things were put through and allows for an escape to those things.
