Increased Capacity to do What Has Been Asked of Me

 

Covenants with God Are Liberating, Not Limiting

By President Camille N. Johnson

By choosing to be bound to my Savior through the covenants I have made with God, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Philippians 4:13). My efforts to keep my covenants—though not perfect—have been rewarded with an increased capacity to do what has been asked of me. I have been blessed with a greater capacity to serve. I have been blessed with the inspiration I need to do the Lord’s work in the ways He would have me do it. With faith in the Lord, I have been blessed to face my challenges with optimism. It is God’s power that eases my way—albeit a way that is uphill!
