Rely on HIM At All Times

"Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakneses that we may know that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the children of men, that we have power to do these things." (Jacob 4:7)

This week the scripture really hit home for me. For some reason I have realized how we truly are all reliant on our Heavenly Father. "Without Him we can do nothing" (John 15:5) It is because of Him that we are having the successes in life that we are. It is because of Him that we are able to progress, and repent and become someone better. It is all because of Him. We truly need Him involved in all aspects of our lives.

I love that in Jacob 4 he tells us that we have our weaknesses so that we can more fully rely Him. So that we can be accessing the Atonement everyday. So that we can realize that he is so prominent in our lives and needs to be at the forefront of our minds. 

It's unfathomable for me to think that the all knowing creator of the universe could have us call him anything, but he wants us to call him Father. He wants us to have a personal relationship with Him. He wants to be so involved in our lives that he has tells us to pray to him and counsel with him in all things. He wants us to know that he is always there for us. He wants us to know that He knows what each of us need to do to return to live with Him. He can see the big picture. As we rely on Him in all things, no matter how small, He truly will guide us in the paths that we need to go. He will shape us as mold us into beings worthy of the Celestial Kingdom, worthy of exaltation. 

Love ya!
