"God will never give you more than you can handle." Not True! For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death.

On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again. (2 Corinthians 1:8–10)
