With God, All Things Are Possible

I read a verse in the scriptures that made me think.
"Therefore they did not fear Ammon, for they supposed that one of their men could slay him according to their pleasure, for they knew not that the Lord had promised Mosiah that he would deliver his sons out of their hands; neither did they know anything concerning the Lord; therefore they delighted in the destruction of their brethren; and for this cause they stood to scatter the flocks of the king."
- Alma 17:35 (emphasis added, by me!)

I forget that God will keep His promises and covenants. It's us that breaks our part. God must love us so much to constantly deal with us breaking our promises. I have a hard time trusting a person after they don't do something they said they were going to do. I say to God I'm going to do a lot, but fall short every time. He loves us so much. I know He does. I know He is there and that He cares.

Sidenote:
General Conference is coming up. This is when leaders of my church talk to us about what we need to do better. The Prophet, President Thomas S. Monson, and the other apostles all talk at least once. I love listening to Conference. It's this Saturday and Sunday.
