D&C 132:13-14 -- On Including God

"And everything that is in the world, whether it be ordained of men, by thrones, or principalities, or powers, or things of name, whatsoever they may be, that are not by me or by my word, saith the Lord, shall be thrown down, and shall not remain after men are dead, neither in nor after the resurrection, saith the Lord your God.
For whatsoever things remain are by me; and whatsoever things are not by me shall be shaken and destroyed."
Doctrine and Covenants 132:13-14


This is a good reminder that God needs to be part of everything we do and everything we are, because the things that we do without God don't last.  This applies to everything, and is one of the reasons that "pray always" matters.  God is the glue that holds our lives and everything we care about together.  Without him, nothing works.

I think we feel that in little bits throughout our lives, and it is something that we have to learn by practice to some extent, realizing that the things that we do with God and the days when we have his Spirit with us are better than without.

Today, let's include God in our decision making and stick close to him.  Let's trust his love and guidance in our lives, and choose not to be shaken. :)
