I think its sad that we argue over this point so much. It's clear from Jesus' teachings that we need both. It's clear that without His Grace we would have no chance. It's clear that there is something required on our part. I don't think that worrying about finding that exact point on the grid is worth our time. I think that we are the best judge of 'our best.' If I search my heart and feel like I'm doing my best, even though I mess up sometimes, then I'm on the right path.

I don't blame people for freaking out when they hear some of our LDS beliefs such as this one. The reason they do so is because they've never heard it before. However, I think one reason this makes people uneasy is because when they think 'GOD,' they think superman and unlimited power. It's not really about that. It's about our Dad who wants us to grow and learn and become like Him, because by learning to obey His eternal laws we will receive what the scriptures call a 'fulness of joy.'
