Is the Journey too Great for Thee?

1 Kin 19:4-7

Does God allow us to bear more than we can handle?

• NO & YES (1 Cor 10:13)

1 Kin 19:7 (the walk too long)

Why--YES-- is not about you, is about learning about God... So God will give us more than what we can handle...

• Mat 11:29 (yolk) Gods arm around your neck
