He is utterly incomparable in what He is,
what He knows,
what He has accomplished,
and what He has experienced.
Yet, movingly, he calls us His friends.
As the only perfect person to sojourn on this planet,
there is none like him.
In intelligence and performance,
He far surpasses the individual
and the composite capacities and achievements
of all who have lived, live now, and will yet live!
He rejoices in our genuine goodness and achievement,
but any assessment of where we stand in relation to Him
tells us that we do not stand at all.
We kneel!
Elder Neal A. Maxwell
Ensign, Nov. 1981
