My Savior and Redeemer


I know with a surety that Christ lives and loves me. He atoned for my sins in the Garden so that I can one day return to my Heavenly Father. He is my best friend. I know that I can communicate with him through prayer, and that he hears and answers them. He knows my weaknesses, sorrows, struggles, and trials. Through him, I can become whole again. He is the puzzle piece to my live that completes me. I know that without the Savior, I cannot progress and become perfect like him. I know that he will carry me when I can no longer carry myself. Our Heavenly Father loves us so deeply that he sent his only begotten son to earth to atone and die for us. His atonement is real. It is so perfect and necessary in our lives. The atonement embraces every person to ever live. It excludes no-one because Christ loves us all the same no matter our circumstance. He is my peace when I am weak, and my rock when I feel unstable. My testimony of his divinity is unshaken. I love him. He sacrificed so much for me. I will forever be indebted to him. He is my elder brother and Heavenly Father's son. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that it is another testament of Jesus Christ. It has strengthened my testimony of him and continues to do so each time I read it. I know that if we trust in him and keep his commandments we will be blessed. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
