A brief spoken reflection by Betsy Guerra asserting that the common saying "God doesn't give you more than you can handle" is often misunderstood. She argues instead that God sometimes gives blessings and graces that we initially cannot handle — and that readiness to receive them (perspective, relationships, abundance) allows one to accept those gifts.

You know how they say that God doesn't give you anything that you can't handle? We tend to think we interpret that as God doesn't give you a bigger cross than you can carry. Right? But the saying is, God doesn't give you anything you can handle. And sometimes what we cannot handle are the graces and the blessings that he has for us. The abundance that you so prayed for, the love and grace in your marriage, in your relationships, the perspective that would allow you to see your son the way you see him now. Mac, like you now have all this perspective because at some point, you were ready to receive what God had in store for you. God doesn't give you anything you can handle.
