reflections on god

A place to write down my thoughts and innermost reflections about how God leads, teaches and loves us...

He Shall Suffer...


Mosiah 3:7-8


7 And lo, he shall suffer temptations, and pain of body, hunger, thirst, and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, except it be unto death; for behold, blood cometh from every pore, so great shall be his anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of his people.
  8 And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; and his mother shall be called Mary


I know who He is... now who am I? Who am I that he would suffer this for me?

I am so thankful to be alive. To live such a beautiful life. To have such a beautiful family. To know such a perfect God. To know that He loved me enough to die for me and that He lives again.

I just pray that when things are rough that I won't forget this, not even for a moment. It is too easy to get caught up in the misery and dwell on the negative. But I have found that it is harder to come out of it, than to stay out of it. Such a blessing it is to just let him take it all away and make me whole and give me a fresh start each day.  What a blessing it truly is:)
