We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.
Relying on God. Most people would say that they rely on Him each day. But do they really? Do we hand over to Him the stress of teenage kids? Do we rely on Him to handle your marriage problems? Do we rely on Him to help you find a job? Do you hand over to Him your emotional dilemmas? When we rely more on God, we see miracles that dreams could not conjure up. Only God can make the impossible look so easily done. The trials you are faces are not always death sentences. But they are real and they are not easy. But they are blessings. They are a chance to show that you can rely on Him and a chance for Him to show you just a little bit of what He can do. Give Him a chance. Give Him something to work with and sit back to watch the show.
