God Knows You're Awesome

I just saw a quote on Facebook that said, in less family-friendly language, "God gives us only what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm awesome." And you are. God held his choicest spirits in reserve to be sent to earth at this time, and that includes all of us. As difficult as it is to believe, we were some of the most valiant spirits in the war in heaven, and God knows that we can be just as valiant here.

God knows us better than we know ourselves. He knows how strong we really are and how much we can really handle. He sent us down to Earth at this time because He knows that we can handle today's challenges. And if He can have that much confidence in us, maybe we can have that much confidence in ourselves. Knowing that God believes in us can give us the confidence to believe in ourselves. And we're going to need that confidence to face the challenges that God knows we can handle. God knows that you're awesome. And I think so, too.

It is hard to believe. But we do know that if we are smart enough to lean on and follow Him, with God's help we can do amazing things. Thanks for the reminder.
