Not Just Sin and Death



One thing I loved from Elder Holland's powerful talk on the Atonement of Jesus Christ is how universal the Atonement is. It doesn't just help us overcome sin and death, though that's spectacular enough already; it also helps us overcome virtually everything else: all of our pain, sufferings, trials, and afflictions, whether they were caused by sin, foolishness, bad luck, or anything else. No matter what our personal challenges are, the Atonement of Jesus Christ can help us overcome them, whether they have anything to do with sin or death or not. I am very grateful for the infinite power of the Atonement, and the many healing forms that power can take.
