Struggles Are Not Too Much

Exodus 18:18 You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone.

1 Corinthians 10:12-13 Don't be so naive and self-confident. You're not exempt. You could fall flat on your face as easily as anyone else. Forget about self-confidence; it's useless. Cultivate God-confidence. No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he'll never let you be pushed past your limit; he'll always be there to help you come through it.

The point of these verses is that nothing is too much to handle. God has a plan for our lives and if we stick to that plan we will not fail. When we depend on our own plan or ideas we fail. God is always with us and can fix any mistake we've made. If we need help, He'll give it to us or show us where to get it.
