He lives to bring me safely there.
Sometimes it is hard to portray in words what you feel in your heart. It's like the scripture, my flesh is weak but my spirit is strong. I'll be simple, I know the Savior lives. I know he came down to this earth to atone for the sins of all the Worlds Heavenly Father created. He not only suffered for our sins, but he suffered for our sorrows. I know he has because I have experienced the peace and cleansing power of the atonement. I know he loves us. It reminds of the line in a primary song, I feel my Saviors love, in all the world around me. Sometimes I'll look up at the stars, and its easy to feel insignificant for a moment, but I realize they are there because he loves us. Everything around us is a testimony that he lives. He is the Son of God. He steps in and makes up where I am lacking. Without him I could never return to Heavenly Father. Not only is he my advocate, but he is my brother. I think of my own brothers and what they would do for me, but it is hard for me to comprehend what the Savior did. I'm learning and understanding more as I get older. I hope to have a Testimony as Bruce R. McConkies, that if I was able to touch the wounds in his hands and in his feet, I would not know any better then, than I do now that he lives. I love him, and I want to live my life so his suffering wasn't in vain. This is my simple testimony in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
