Limits

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have. (Kary Oberbrunner, author and speaker)

How much strength and endurance do you have? It’s when we face a task that is more difficult than we had expected that we discover our limitations. That’s a good thing to know. We’ll not likely sprain a muscle if we recognize how far we can go and stop short of hurting ourselves. The same principle applies when we face tests of our character.

When we run into problems and trials, . . . we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character . . . (Romans 5:3-4)
