Genesis 19:19

"Behold now, thy servant hath found ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die."

Genesis 6:8

"But Noah found ENABLING AND STRENGTHENING POWER in the eyes of the LORD."

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.
