Thanks again Snowbird, those are 2 very powerful scriptures that have alot of meaning in my life right now.
Junction-Guy, you are very welcome. Having undergone a baptism of fire, I know the One who has always stood by me.

Hello,
You may be NotSoMuch but that's enough to make it through. Don't lose faith! Don't lose heart!
God will not test you beyond what you can bear. He will make a way out for you just as the rest of that verse says. For your part, you
1. Have to see "the way out"
2. Have to be willing to take it
Sometimes it takes a lot of searching and thinking to see "the way out" being provided by God. Then there's the matter of willingness: sometimes it means letting go of just about everything we have in order to do things God's way.
Don't be afraid. Don't give up and don't give in, as someone I respected used to say.
Hoping you'll stay on the path,
AnneB

I like those last few words: dont give up and dont give in. This is my motto.

"God will not test you beyond what you can bare"..
Of course he won't. He doesn't exist, therefore his tests also don't exist.

2Cor4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
Welcome, AnneB, if you haven't already received one.

Having my family reject me is one thing but this new thing added, if there is a God, he will need to step in soon. I was diagnosed with precancer 3 years ago, for the first year I had to go get checked every 6 months then it went to once a year because it did not move into the next stage. I just got a call from the Doctors today saying it went up to stage 3. I am so depressed and can not bear this anymore. He is going to have to step in soon because I am at my breaking point.

You know when God has tested you beyond what you can bare, when you blow your brains out or jump in front of a speeding train. Game Over, anyone else care to play? Two of my friends were tested beyond what they could bare and are no longer with us.

Does that mean that when little children are being molested that God is just testing them and he allows because they can bear it?
Does that mean that when a woman has an abusive husband and he's beating the crap out of her that she's being tested and this is allowed because she can bear it?
Either god is sleeping or just doesn't give a damn! Oh, maybe he doesn't exist and is just a make believe character created a long long time ago to explain what was then the unexplainable?
Welcome to JWD and I'm sorry you are having health issues
