I finally understand

I can't imagine why the Savior would have such patience with us. For whatever reason, being that we are his children, I am grateful that he does. LOL. Anyway, I was pondering on the Pure love of Christ, which is relevant to the season, I guess. It is December 14, 2010, already, unbelievable, which is why Father in Heaven doesn't like putting things off and expects us to do like wise. I'm on a venture to set a "habit" before the new year. It takes 21 days they say. So, I'm going to do 21 days of blogging my spiritual journey this month. Hopefully, that will help me get on track in sharing my humble opinions on the scriptures and the world around me,  which is our stewardship as the scriptures indicate to "call upon the inhabitants of the Earth" and bring everyone, including ourselves to repentance.

I have been carrying a heavy burden for the past few weeks and it has been affecting me. I didn't realize until this morning. I did have a huge "reawakening" that I didn't have to bear it alone. Although the issue has nothing to do with me, I still bore it heavily in my heart, and I, finally, cried unto the Lord and gave it to him to handle. I understood his anguish, his Gethsemane. He did bear our burdens and our pains, he did understand our anguish our desire to be better, his pain was real. His love was perfect. I cannot fathom that which he saw in His heart as he lived in mortality. He could see all that we could not and all he would say is to have faith in his words and live according to the commandments, which were brought forth because of Him.

I never realized how hard it was to carry someone else's anguish, but I did and now I see. I can't imagine what carrying all of mankind's pain and suffering would be like, I guess we do. He bled from every pore, and so we see the manifestation of that severe burden. I am so grateful for the perfect love of a perfect being, who gave so much for us that we could "see" the Glory of God.
