Comfort

I love the comfort of realizing, at times, my children actually listen to advice and direction given to them. Well, anyone for whom I care, for that matter. I only want what is best for those that I love. I am not certain that is a true statement either for I feel a love/concern for all of humanity as they are my brothers and sisters all. I know there are people over whom I have direct and immediate influence and those for whom I have an indirect effect. My examply must speak for and of me. It radiates my belief and hope in God, that we are His Children, He is our Father and that we are all interconnected. I take comfort in the knowledge that through my Big Brother, Christ, I can be forgiven, we can ALL be forgiven if we but repent, obey the commandments and endure to the end. We obtain mercy after all we can do. It is not enough to merely profess, we must live according to the dictates of mercy and justice. Christ is our bridge from justice to mercy because He overcame all. He was perfect, he obeyed the Father, abrogating His, Christ's will, to that of His Father and our Father, providing in Himself the perfect example. He overcame all, He brought about the atonement and broke the bands of death. He is my Lord and my light! He is my friend, He is my goal, He is my comfort.
