“Jesus is our strength, and what we cannot do or bear, He can both do and bear in us.”

“One can bear anything. The pain we cannot bear will kill us outright.”

“What we cannot bear removes us from life; what remains can be borne.”

“We are made most specifically by the things we cannot bear to do”

“We can bear the sun not to set, but we cannot bear the sun not to rise!”

“God's fighting for us does not exclude the responsibility to be prepared for battle both in the area of strategy and in equipment. Trusting God completely in prayer, believing that He is able to do all things, does not remove the need to pray for His strength to accomplish what He has prepared us to do! We are to do what He is unfolding for us to do, fulfilling what God is giving us strength to do, acknowledging that it is His strength and not ours. It is a truly active passive, not a false whining humbleness that says, 'I can't do anything; I'm too weak.”
