Notes
In our lives, there will be pain, sadness, tragedies, triumph and celebrations. Joy is in all. Faith is in all. The big question is whether we will find God in the hard times? If we can handle all that comes our way, then why do we need God? God knows exactly how much we can handle. God doesn’t give you more than He can handle.
