"God only gives you what you can handle"

I have been hearing this a lot so I decided to Google it, in search for a response. It lead me to this website GotQuestions.org and this is the response it gave me.

Question: "Does God promise to not give us more than we can handle?"

Answer:
1 Corinthians 10:13 in the NIV tells us, “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.” 1 Corinthians 10:13 in the NKJV reads, “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” This Scripture teaches us a powerful principle. God will not allow anything to come into our lives that we are not capable of withstanding.

So, anything that comes our way, anything that tempts us, any tragedy that befalls us – we are capable of overcoming it and achieving spiritual victory. That does not mean it will always be easy. Quite the contrary…the fact that we may need a “way of escape” indicates that God sometimes allows difficult trials to come into our lives. You may not believe that you can overcome it, you may doubt your own strength to prevail…you may even fail in the temptation. That does not mean, though, that you were not capable of overcoming that particular temptation. Whether it is a temptation to sin or a temptation to doubt God – God promises that we will be able to overcome it.

Philippians 4:13 declares, “I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” 2 Peter 1:3-4 reminds us, “His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.”

I do not know if this help us now but I figured I would post it since we hear it so much.
