Rachel I think that is pertaining to temptation:

1 CORINTHIANS 10:13

[FONT=&quot]

KJ21​

There hath no temptation taken hold of you but such as is common to man. But God is faithful; He will not suffer you to be tempted beyond that which ye are able to bear, but with the temptation will also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

I am not familar with it being in any other context, I will check again.

I am not sure what happened to my first post but this needs to go along with it.

[FONT=&quot]So to answer all of that and give my answer to the question, let’s just look at the key texts that I think he probably has in mind. 1 Corinthians 10:13, “No temptation” — or “test,” it is the same word in Greek — “no test has overtaken you but what is common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted — tested — beyond your ability — or beyond what you are able — but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]When Paul says, “he won’t give what is beyond what you are able,” he means, “not beyond what you are able with God’s help.” We know that because of a couple of other things he says, for example, in 2 Corinthians 9:8: “God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.” In other words, in every test or temptation, the question is, “Will I do what I ought to do?” And Paul says, “There will be grace,” not just, “I am depending on you to use your resources without depending on grace.” “I am giving you grace so there will be grace to do it, not you independent of my powers to help.”[/FONT]

If you rip a hole in a net, it actually has fewer holes than before.
And if you cut a corner off a piece of paper, it gains a corner.
And if you crush a bag of chips, you get more chips.

Every time the commercial comes on TV advertising the new show "Would you kiss a stranger?", I get a look on my face like I walked into a really bad smell. Obviously I am not going to be volunteering to be a participant on the show.

Kiss a stranger? Are you kidding me? I barely tolerate the people I like invading my personal space bubble periodically, but to have a stranger up in my grill would just...I mean...just NO. *ick*

You better stop using the handsome David Tennants Gifs.... Not sure how his wife would like you crushing on him...

I say the following with as much sarcasm as I can possibly muster:

I am soooo glad I diced up so many green onions to put in my tuna salad for lunch. I am really enjoying the frequent, melodic, fragrant belches that come from my mouth.

Why poot and waste it
When you can burp and taste it?

oyster67: actually I have never heard a pastor or any preacher do that. Where did you hear this? Wherever it was, I probably wouldn't go back there.

Perhaps these are the places that need us most.

When light goes down, I see no reason
For you to cry. We've been through this before
In every time, in every season,
God knows I've tried
So please don't ask for more.

Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye

Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend
Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again

I read your mind, with no intentions
Of being unkind, I wish I could explain
It all takes time, a whole lot of patience
If it's a crime, how come I feel no pain...

The struggle is real.

Isn't it?

I spent the entire day being awesome, and it has been exhausting. Time for some well-earned rest. Tomorrow will be upon me before I know it.
