1 + 1

Oct 27, 2013

1 + 1 = 2. Unless 1 is God and 1 is you. Then 1 + 1 is infinitely more than we can imagine.

My dear stake president (leader of several of our local church congregations) gave this math lesson to us today and I have been pondering it all day.

I think I want to put it on a sign or on my wall or on SOMETHING so I can look at it every day and remember this critical truth. I am not alone. I do not have to fix the problem alone. I do not have to pretend I am someone amazing that can do anything on her own. I cannot get to heaven alone. All of this is impossible. Absolutely irrevocably impossible if I am alone.

But I am not alone. I have chosen to walk with God. I have chosen and I continue to choose to give Him my heart. With God all things are possible.

He loves me. He knows me. His power and goodness and wisdom are infinite. My job is to walk with Him.
