Who is this Hero who heals the sick?

Who is this Hero who feeds thousands?

Who is this Hero who calms the sea?

Who is this Hero who raises the dead?

Who is this Hero who died and comes back to life?

The Things That Really Matter

I had a dream last night. Two factions of people were fighting, I don't remember what over. All I know is that it was trivial. A group from one faction stood on a hill, shooting down onto a city, mostly aiming for what I believe was a church. I was with this group, though I was very reluctant to shoot the devices. They were RPGs, shooting something similar to a grenade out of a one-gallon milk jug. (Remember, this was a dream; not everything makes perfect sense.) At one point, when my turn came, I finally refused to shoot the device, and disarmed mine, throwing away the grenade, but holding on to the jug. I told the other people in my group to stop, and stood up in front of the line of fire. Another girl became very angry, and shoved a device right in my face, implying that she would shoot me to get to the target below. I remember feeling slightly nervous, but highly determined. The scene shifted, as dreams do, and I found myself in the city, standing near a...

My King, My Light, My Life, and My Hope

Image
 Merry Christmas!  The last paragraph of The Living Christ states "He is the great King Immanuel...He is the light, the life and the hope of the world."  I want to share with you three pictures that illustrate my feelings of how Christ is my King, my Light, my Life, and my Hope.    My King:                  I love this image as a ruler and a protector.

And she loves Him and will follow Him anywhere.   My Light and My Life:  This drawing is titled “A Change of Heart”. I imagine that the hard, dark, broken heart is mine and it lives in the blackness of a sorrowing, lost soul. But, I have invited in the soft, light, whole heart of Christ. He is my light, my guide. He gives me life.     My Hope:  This has long been my favorite picture of the Second Coming. It represents ...

Surely Jesus Removes All Shame From the Broken

I was reading Elder Karl D Hirst's talk "God's Favourite" from October General Conference, and I was highlighting passages and writing down thoughts, not casually, but just moving along through the talk, when I read a sentence that stopped me in my tracks: "Surely Jesus removes all shame from the broken." Have you ever felt broken? Like your brain or your body or your spirit just don't work the way they are supposed to? I have. And while I have never been personally told that I am broken or unworthy or less than because of my struggles, I know people with similar struggles have been told that. And sometimes I feel that if they are, surely I am too. But, "through His brokenness, He became perfect, and He can make us perfect in spite of our brokenness. Broken, lonely, torn, and bruised He was-and we may feel we are-but separated from God we are not." "Surely Jesus removes all shame from the broken." Many examples come to mind.  The woma...
