The Atonement


The most wonderful thing about the Atonement of Jesus Christ is that it is there for ALL of us. No one (Not even the grumpy lady at Costco) is exempt. It is there to lift and change our hearts. It is there to cast away burdens, no matter how heavy. I love the Atonement of Jesus Christ, and need it in my life each day because of my many imperfections.

The beautiful Atonement has taught me a great deal lately. Just like Jesus Christ, who is so willing to forgive everything, I need to forgive also. I have been trying to forgive freely, and not let things bother me as much on a daily basis. What a gift it has been, and what peace forgiveness brings.

And so, just in case you are in the mood to tell me off or kick me in the left knee, this would be a very good time to do it. After all, I will most likely forgive you on the spot!!

Watch this...you'll be glad you did!
