COME UNTO ME


 

".....the Savior's Atonement lifts from us not only the burden of sin but also the burden of our disappointments and sorrows, our heartaches and our despair.......the soul that comes unto Christ, who knows His voice and strives to do as He did, finds a strength.....'beyond [his] own'. The Savior reminds us that He has 'graven [us] upon the palms of [His] hands' ( 1 Nephi 21:16). Considering the incomprehensible cost of the Crucifixion and Atonement, I promise you He is not going to turn His back on us now. When He says to the poor in spirit, 'Come unto me', He means He knows the way out and He knows the way up. He knows it because He has walked it. He knows the way because He IS the way."
