God can give or take away, Well who would make such an awful rule.

About This Quote

The power of God can be used to make us feel as if we have no control over our own lives. When we feel as if everything is out of our hands, we often give up and let others make decisions for us. We often say things like, "God can give or take away." We speak as if it is a big deal that He keeps His promise to take care of us. If this is the case, why do we give up?
