YOU CAN'T DO IT BY YOURSELF


I know.  I know.  I know.
The trend on social media is what we
call self help.

You know.
"You can do it."  "Get up and try again."
"Hang on, you will make it."  "Don't give up."
etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. - over and over and 
over again.

But, what would God teach us.
The apostle Paul shows us:

"In fact, we expected to die.  But 
as a result, we stopped relying 
on ourselves and learned to rely 
only on God, who raises the dead."
(2 Corinthians 1:9 NLT)

How would God have us do it?
Again the Apostle Paul shows us:

"Don't worry about anything; 
instead, pray about everything.  Tell
God what you need, and thank him
for all he has done.  Then you will
experience God's peace, which exceeds 
anything we can understand.  His peace 
will guard your hearts and minds as 
you live in Christ Jesus."
(Philippians 4:6,7 NLT)
