Sometimes I just want to shout, “I can’t DO THIS!”
Hi, I’m Renee Swope for Proverbs 31 Ministries.
The other day my friend’s son called out to her, “Mom, I can't do this!" He was working on his math in the den and she was in the kitchen washing dishes. So she told him, “If you can't do it just bring it to me."Right then, she thought, isn’t that how God responds to me when I’m overwhelmed?
He says, "If you can't do it, just bring it to Me."When I’m hurting, again God says, "If you can't do it, just bring it to Me."And when I’m confused? "If you can't do it, just bring it to Me."What a great reminder, huh? When I think I can't do something, I can bring it to God. I can take what little I can do and put it in His hands. Then I can watch Him take my meager efforts and turn them into something He can do.
