Jesus Christ

Today I was feeling very grateful for knowing Jesus Christ, and having him in my life.  Its so wonderful to be able to feel his holy, good and loving presence whenever I pray, or read scripture, listen to holy music.  I really appreciate all the beautiful pieces of art and various church movies that we have in our church that helps us know him more

My first experience of him as an adult was when I had big argument with a friend in my late 20's and in those days I felt so distraught by any conflict.  My friend had to go to work and so it would be hours before we could resolve anything.  I felt filled with anxiety and emotional pain I couldn't seem to stop or control.  I asked Jesus to help me. I didn't ask for anything specific, just help.  A peace flooded over me that was surprising, and definitely not me.  I had never had this experience before.  This peace stayed with me all day.  When I shared this experience with the friend it really was the beginning of our relationship to Jesus Christ.  Over time I came to understand that he is not just a fictional character, but was and is the Savior of the world, a great friend, wonderful brother, and truly the power of Heaven brought to earth.  

There are some who try and say he was just another great teacher like all the others, but of course this is from those who don't know him.  He is the only one that can take away the darkness, pain, and sicknesses created by the negativity of the world, created by our own thoughts, words, actions.   He truly delivers us, rescues us, frees us, and beautifies our lives once again, so we can live as the pure, innocent, beautiful, divine children of God we were born to live.  It is through him we are brought home.  There is no one else ever created who could do that for us.  He was and is the one perfect person, therefore I can trust his words, teachings and example.  I know that if I follow him, I am then enabled and empowered to live the very best life, the highest version of myself there is.  I am blessed to know him and have him in my life as my Savior. 

I now focus on Jesus Christ, and allow myself to be enveloped by his great love for me.  I feel in touch with the Heavenly realm through having a personal relationship to him.
