After all we can do

For we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do. (2 Nephi 25:23)

Christs power is not an emergency generator that turns on once our supply is exhausted. It is not a booster engine once we run out of steam. Rather, it is our constant energy source. If we think of Christ only making up the difference after we do our part, we are failing to keep the promise we make each Sunday to remember Him always. Elder Bruce C. Hafen confimred, "The Savior's gift of grace to us is not necessarily limited in time to 'after' all we can do. We may receive his grace before, during, and after the time when we expend our own efforts". Brad Wilcox, The Continuous Atonement.

May we always remember him. Love, Tammy
