"What we call the beginning is often the end
And to make an end is to make a beginning."
-T.S. Elliot, Four Quartets-Little Gidding
Happy Easter Sunday!
As I look back on this past year--including the trials I've overcome and acquired, I realize now just how great a role Jesus Christ has played in my life. Through the atonement, I know that I will be the champion of any challenge I face in life. I know that overcoming our weaknesses often brings about our greatest strengths. Prior to this year, I had always thought of myself as insignificant in the grand schemes of Heaven, but I've come to realize that no trial is too small or goes unnoticed by God. At times it felt like I was trapped in a pit with no escape; however, I saw my Savior many times through the eyes of friends, family, and medical professionals who raised me from my personal prison. Christ knew how to succor my spirit and gave me the love I so desperately needed because He suffered all things.
I know that Jesus is the Christ, and that He lives. His death on Calvary was not an end, but a marvelous beginning.
I believe in Christ.
I owe Him my life and all that I am.
I love my Savior.
"Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things..." -Alma 26:12
