Everything you encounter cannot destroy you without God's approval. Before you rationalize and create a list of things that nearly took you out, take heed to the following scriptures and see the love of God. What you view as a situation that nearly took you out, in actuality, it could not take you out unless God approves. The edge of your faith is like the seed breaking through the soil....
3 John 3:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
Psalms 34:17
The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
