You know Ardith, even though God does give us more than we can handle, I found something so comforting from the story of Job a few months ago. Strangely enough, the conversation God has with Satan in chapter 2 of the story spoke something new to me. “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil. And he still maintains his integrity, though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason.” I saw in this statement that God had faith in Job. Think about that a minute. When Job would question and struggle and want to die, God would have the faith for Job. So, I guess in thinking about your desire to have faith as strong as the One your faith is placed in, I would have to conclude that God holds faith for us too. That comforts me in my seasons of trouble.
I love you, and I sure thank you for your prayers for me during that time, and the conversations we shared. We’ll hold each other up. Okay?!

Good article on when God gives you more than you can handle. http://www.desiringgod.org/blog/posts/why-god-gives-us-more-than-we-can-handle

I love what you said Robin. Yes, sometimes all we can do is say His name, and that is enough. He comes running.
I am so glad He listens!
