Life of Pi

Last night my husband and I decided to rent Life of Pi. We had heard it was a good movie and to say the least, I am in love with this movie! Despite the challenges that Pi faces, he is still praising God through his heartbreaks and fear. To be honest, I felt inspired and thought to myself that maybe it is time for me to ask for help from God more often. God is strong enough to handle my anger, my tears, and so much more.
I did a lot of thinking yesterday and somewhere saw the quote that "God doesn't give us what we can't handle." I disagree. The more I've thought about it these past few hours, the more I have come to the conclusion that it isn't God who gives us to much but instead life. Circumstances of life give us to much to carry in our hearts alone, and so we are left to carry the weight ourselves. Or we can turn to God, nothing is to great for him. When we feel helpless, when our world seems to be falling apart...God is simply waiting for us to come to him. So where life breaks our will...God gives us the strength to keep going, all we have to do is ask.
