Me: I can’t. I can’t handle the stress. I can’t deal with the uncertainty of life. I can’ t handle the hurt, the trouble that others cause. I can’t handle the incompetency of the humans around me.

Lord: You don’t have to handle it. I’ve got you. From me comes deliverance. If you call upon me, I will answer you. I will come to you. I will save you. I will protect you. What, then, will you say in response to these things? If God is for you, who can be against you?

Me: Dear Lord, I often forget that I can’t but you can.

(Psalms 3. Psalms 27:3, Romans 8:31)
