God Decides

This post is part of the General Conference Odyssey. This week covers the Saturday afternoon session of the April 2006 conference.

In an age when people want to do their own thing it is good to be reminded that God sets the standards, entrance requirements, and rewards. Elder Bednar's talk on always having His Spirit to be with us resonated with me.

You and I do not decide the nature or elements of a covenant. Rather, exercising our moral agency, we accept the terms and requirements of a covenant as our Eternal Father has established them.

I find that comforting and encouraging. I can rely on Him because He is not capricious and fallible. Rather He is steadfast, reliable, eternal and unchanging.
