The Mountain and the Heart

God uses the greatest amount of pressure, force, and time to create each mountain. Yet only the smallest forces are required to destroy it: wind, rain, and sand. Only God can create a mountain, and only He may destroy it.

But the barriers that we throw up in our hearts, we do so with the smallest amount of pressure and resistance, and in such short amounts of time. Yet it takes the greatest amount of force to tear those barriers down, because we are such stubborn people.

Be careful that you do not put up barriers to God, for though He can destroy them as easily as He can a mountain, you must come to God of your own accord.

Did you mean "he can destroy THEM just as easily as He can a mountain"?

At this point, it says "He can destroy the just as easily as He can a mountain," and while true, it doesn't seem to match your intent :)

Nick, great catch! Thank you. Yes it was just a typo, and because of your catch I removed the word "just" also so that there the likelihood of misinterpreting my statement is decreased. Thanks again, and I so appreciate your comments and knowing that you are reading my posts!!!
