Ep62: Christ Makes Up The Difference


Listen Later

In this episode, Karen explores the truth that we don't have to do everything perfectly before turning to Christ. She addresses the misconception around "after all we can do" from 2 Nephi 25:23, sharing how our "best" looks different on different days—and that's okay. Through personal stories and powerful scriptures, Karen reminds us that Christ wants to be with us in the messy moments, not just when we have it all together.

5 Key Takeaways:

  1. "All we can do" means humility, not perfection - The phrase "after all we can do" isn't about doing everything flawlessly; it's about humbly accepting we need Christ's help and inviting Him into our lives.
  2. Christ understands our worst days - According to Alma 7:11-12, Christ experienced all our pains and weaknesses so He could succor us in our hardest moments—not just our best ones.
  3. God gives us weaknesses to make us humble - As shown in Ether 12:27, the Lord gives us weaknesses so we'll turn to Him, and when we do, He can make our weak things become strong.
  4. Perfectionism is actually Satan's plan - Trying to do everything perfectly before turning to God denies Christ's power and mirrors Satan's plan to force everyone to do everything right without need for a Savior.
  5. Christ loves you individually - Just as He invited people one by one to feel the prints in His hands (3 Nephi 11), Christ's love is personal and specific to you, right where you are today.
