I noticed the other day that I have a mindset that the Savior is set at a certain height or space, and that it is my job to reach Him, if that makes sense. I work my tail off trying to reach Him. I fight and fight for it. And often, I find myself exhausted over it and still rarely reaching Him.
My mindset is wrong.
The Savior is never in a place where I have to raise myself to reach Him and His strength and love and power. He walks with me in my space, in my mess. He hath “descended below all things” so that He could be where I am. Yes, I want to grow and become my best possible self, but He is with me all along the way, struggling with me through it all. He is beside me, not above me. I am never alone in my battle. He is beside me, with me the entire way. He is my bestfriend.
I am so grateful for His loving, consistent patience and peace in my life.
Forever grateful!
