Beyond Our Ability to Endure

2 Corinthians 1:8-9 We do not want you to be uninformed about the hardships we suffered…far beyond our ability to endure. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God. (NIV 1978)

My Musings – While Paul did not have the ability to endure, we know that he did until he was martyred. During all this he learned to rely on God.

My Advice – Learn from hardships. Learn to rely on God. He will never fail you.

I was raised in a Christian family and my earliest childhood memories include regular Sunday school and Church attendance as a family. I was taught that our Judeo-Christian values were not just a part of our Sunday routine they should be part of our character and influence all aspects of our lives. I was also taught that as important as these values were they could not save us. We must also be “born again” by accepting Christ.
