I find it ironic that every time that I prepare to teach a lesson, I am the one who end up getting more out of it. This week, my visiting teaching companion and I visited one of our dear sisters. We got to her place, ready to teach her the lesson of the month which was about the atonement of our Savior, Jesus Christ. After reading the article, my companion turned to the sister we were visiting and asked : When in your life do you feel the love of God the most? She answered and said when she has meaningful prayer. As she answered, i pondered that same question. When do I feel the love of God the most? I feel the Love of God the most, when I need to forgive other people. This past few months especially, I had to deal with a lot of injustices and heartbreaks. I did not know whether to be mad, sad, depressed or just forget about it all. I could not see myself move on from all the hurt. As my circumstance and tried to put myself in the shoes of those who wronged me, I realized that the only way to deal with the pain was to forgive. The only way to move on was to try to be like my Savior Jesus Christ and forgive. The only way to heal was to give the burden to whom it correspond, my Savior Jesus Christ: the healer. After all, everything I go through is to help me understand a little bit of the pain he went through to be able to succor me today from all life's troubles. I love the atonement of Jesus Christ. It is one of the subjects that no matter how much I study it, I am always amazed at how much there is to learn. Because of the atonement of Jesus Christ, I know that I can be a better me every seconds of this mortal life. From the article there was a verse from Isiah 49:16 that said: "Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
It is impressive how our Savior knows each one of us by name. Each one of our life is his reponsibility. He is there waiting for us to lean on him so he can give s rest. He is indeed the biggest proof of love from God.
