I find myself fighting God's trials lately and wondering why so much is happening at once. When my wife reminds me that God will not give us more than we can handle, it brings me back to reality and I then lokk back to try and find out why I have been given the opportunity to grow to fulfill God's on-going purpose for my life.
I also realize that I need to spend more time listening to God's word and growing in my journey with him. I would suggest everyone to "stop" when they think they are about to scream from being ovewhelmed and just listen to what God may be trying to tell you. Listening in an analytical way to what you are experiencing and look for how you might grow from it and then proceed to overcome the challenge. In the end you will be stronger in your walk with God and ready to face future hurdles.

Romans 8
22We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? 25But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
26In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. 27And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.
28And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,[j] who[k] have been called according to his purpose. 29For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
