APRIL 21-27: If Ye Are Not One Ye Are Not Mine

Come Follow Me Doctrine & Covenants 37-40

We've already talked about the gathering worldwide of Christ's believers. What I think is exciting is that each branch of His kingdom has something for us all to grow from. United in our worship, we can bring harmony and spread His love to all His children.

And yet, we begin by creating unity closer to home. What relationships are you struggling with? Have you sought God's help in changes you should make to bring improvements. I learned long ago that you cannot change another person's behavior; the only behavior you can change is your own. However, changing your behavior will change how another reacts to you. So, no matter who might be at fault - ask for God to help you look at yourself and make your change.

I Can Only Imagine - MercyMe

We took a road trip recently through the Cascade Mountain Range in northwestern USA. While there may be singular peaks that stand apart, most of a mountain range is hills upon hills that stand together, lifting the ground beneath all. Even those peaks that stand prominent above the rest are held on higher ground of a collective range.

Many of these mountain hills were covered in varieties of Redwoods, roots intertwined offering support for each tree trunk, each tree, to grow exceptionally tall and straight.

With these images in mind, I was drawn to this video by InSalvation.

As children of God we stand together, the ground beneath us elevated; with roots intertwined, our influence grows tall, strong, and enduring in confidence.
