If this lie were true, Paul wouldn’t have survived. This phrase doesn’t come from the Bible; it came from confusing temptation with suffering.

This sounds responsible, but it’s not biblical. You want to know the truth? God helps those who admit they cannot help themselves. “While we were still sinners, he died for us.” Grace isn’t for the self-sufficient, it’s for the surrendered. Stop striving, and start trusting.
