Easter


Yesterday I was reading in the Ensign about the last week in Christ's life. In the article it describes the mock trial and then I read, "After both the Jewish hearing and the Roman trial, Jesus was subjected to abuse; mocking, scourging, spitting. " Then, "Jesus willingly suffered our pains, afflictions, and infirmities that He might 'take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people' and that He might 'know. . .how to succor his people according to their infirmities".
He the only perfect Being, suffered these injustices for us. He knows how we feel and how to help us when we struggle. He loves us! He broke the bands of death and sin that we could have the opportunity to come Home.
I know He lives. I hope to become more like Him in this refining process we call life.
