HOW MUCH CAN I HANDLE ON MY OWN
I poured a glass of water into my hand to see how much water
my hand can hold. At the end, I was only able to account for a tablespoon; a
large portion of the water had slipped through my fingers.
Many a time I find myself searching for solutions, trying to
control the outcome of circumstances I had no influence over. No matter how
hard I try, there is only so much I can do; and at the end I could only account
for a tablespoon.
Isaiah told us that God can account for everything; he has
measured the waters in the world, the dust of the earth, weighed the mountains
and the hills (Isaiah 40:12). His hands are large enough; we need not hold more
than He has designed our hands to carry. We can trust Him to handle the things
that overwhelm us.
