0:00.0	Hi, friend. You may have heard Tuesday's show where I mentioned I'll be taking the month of July off from the podcast. But don't worry, for this month, we are bringing you some of the top 20 best shows of all time from both seasons two and three of Joe. So excited for you to hear some of your favorite interviews on Tuesdays and some of your favorite solo Devo shows with me
0:22.4	on Thursdays all month right here on the Jesus Over Everything show.
0:28.6	Hi, and welcome to Jesus Over Everything, a short practical podcast that mixes encouragement,
0:34.2	the Bible, how-toes, and fantastic interviews for the listener on the go.
0:38.7	I'm Lisa Whittle, and I welcome you to just a few minutes with me, which I trust and pray
0:42.8	will be time well spent.
0:44.6	Wrapping up January with a really familiar phrase Christians love, or at least some of us
0:49.3	say this a lot, and the rest of us don't really love it. God won't give you more than you can handle.
0:54.8	I actually wish this statement were true. It's just not. Now listen, we have hope with Jesus and I
1:00.0	have a beautiful verse to share with you that I think is the intention of many people who say this

1:10.0	you more than you can handle.
1:11.6	It's not only not in the Bible, but categorically untrue.
1:15.8	Here we go.
1:21.8	I want to first sort of get this out of the way that God cares about all of us deeply.
1:27.0	We know this, right? And I'm not just
1:28.8	saying this, but scripture gives us plenty of proof. Verses like cast all your cares on him,
1:34.3	for He cares for you, First Peter, 5, 7. The verse about how he gathers our tears in a bottle. I love
1:39.8	that verse, Psalm 56, 8. The verse about the very number of hairs on your head or numbery, that
1:47.7	verses in the gospels, Matthew and Luke, the verse about how, because he bends down to listen to us
1:53.2	in our prayers, that's a beautiful verse in Psalm. And the entire Psalm 139, those are just a quick start
1:59.9	about some of the verses about how much God cares about us and the attention that he's paying to us.
