1 Corinthians 15:10

"But by the ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER of God I am what I am: and his ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER which has bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER of God which was in me."

1 Corinthians 3:10

"According to the ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon."

Why My Grace Project?

In my last counseling session my therapist challenged me to read and to put into practice the talk from this March's Ensign by Carolyn J. Rasmus titled "The Enabling Power of the Atonment". In this talk Carolyn quoted from a talk Elder David A Bednar gave at BYU back in 2001 which was featured in the April 2012 Ensign. In Elder Bednar's talk he spoke about the enabling power of the Atonement and said: "I believe we can learn much about this vital aspect of the Atonement if we will insert 'enabling and strengthening power' each time we find the word grace in the scriptures."

This what My Grace Project is for. I'm going to be going through all of the scriptures that include the word "grace" and will insert "enabling and strengthening power" in and I will see what I have to learn about this enabling power of the Atonement.

Please take the time to read both of these articles and take the time to really ponder them and apply their teachings into your life. It will change your life for the better.
