Similarly, the Lord never manifests His strength and grace at an inopportune moment or location, but He constantly gives in accordance with the need of the moment. He doesn't give you strength until you need it.
When we consider what some of God's children go through as a result of their loyalty to the Saviour, we cringe. Instead of taking the easiest route, many people have opted to endure great agony. Would we follow suit, I wonder?
Of course, the Lord does not demand that we commit to something before it is required. And if we must endure agony for His sake, we may be confident that He will give us whatever we need to do so.
As Christ's followers, we can take things one step at a time and have faith that the Lord's bridges of grace will be perfectly placed to give us safe passage to the other side whether we encounter a dried-up gulch or a raging torrent.
God extends us enough grace to get through each adversity. God strengthens you and me every day by sending his compassionate assistance; we must use today's resources and leave tomorrow's to itself.
