Our protections in this life and for eternity will be in individual and family righteousness, Church ordinances, and following the Savior. This is our refuge from the storm. For those who feel they are alone, you can stand resolutely in righteousness knowing that the Atonement will protect and bless you beyond your ability to fully understand.
We should remember the Savior, keep our covenants, and follow the Son of God as the young sunflower follows the sunshine. Following His light and example will bring us joy, happiness, and peace. As Psalm 27 and a favorite hymn both proclaim, “The Lord is my light and my salvation.”” – Elder Quentin L. Cook, Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Psalm 119:105; “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
For today, we’re going to forego the little sunflower thing and the location problem the Church has encumbered itself with and just cut to the chase.
Mr. Cook said –
“…the Savior accomplished the Atonement, which resolves the most terrible burdens that can occur in this life. He did it for you, and He did it for me…Our protections in this life and for eternity will be in individual and family righteousness, Church ordinances, and following the Savior. This is our refuge from the storm.”
Question:
Tell me, what did Jesus overcome during His suffering if we’re responsible for family righteousness and church ordinances?
