Helaman 12:13 -- On Moving the Earth

"Yea, and if he say unto the earth—Move—it is moved."
Helaman 12:13

Probably because I am in the process of packing and moving, this just seems extra super plus astounding to me.  It is anyway, of course, but even more so right now.  And maybe there is a lesson here as well.  It's important to be able to think of God as a personal God, but sometimes we go a little bit too far and think of him as possessing human weakness and fallibility.  And if we start thinking that he can make mistakes, then we can get completely off track, thinking that he might not know what he is doing, that we can't really trust him, and on down the slippery slope. :)
Today, let's remember that God can do anything.  He can move the earth.  He can walk on water.  He is *God* ... and we can trust him and know that if we stick with him, the happy ending will come.  Everything will eventually work out.  During the stressful moments in our lives, let's rely on him and know that he will move the earth to help us, literally. :)
