Forgiveness.

Church was amazing today, except for the part where I was an emotional wreck. (Fast Sunday does that to me) I love listening to everyone's testimonies. Everyone says something completely different, yet it all goes back to one thing...our Savior. I am so grateful for the gospel. A life without it, I can not even begin to imagine. 

Today, in Relief Society, we had an amazing lesson on "The power of Forgiveness".

"I wish today to speak of forgiveness. I think it may be the greatest virtue on earth, and certainly the most needed."
-Gordon B. Hinckley

 It was such a great lesson. As I really started to think, I wondered to myself...how soon am I to forgive? My thoughts were running wild. I realized I may not be as quick to forgive as I should be. Who would I be to expect to be forgiven if I can't find it in my own heart to forgive? Christ is our perfect example. No matter what may happen, or what we do... he is always standing there with open arms. He is always waiting for us to come home. I am so grateful for his love and his example of forgiveness... for the opportunity to partake of the atonement every week. I am so blessed. 

Today was a beautiful day, 
Happy Sunday!
