“Apply the Atoning Blood of Christ”
Elder Neal A. Maxwell
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Elder Maxwell teaches meek submission in suffering, replacing 'why me' with 'what now,' and testifies that Christ's Atonement perfected His empathy.
“What is required of me now?”
“Meek suffering often does the excavating necessary for that enlarging!”
“greatly enlarge the soul”
“Not shrinking is much more important than surviving!”
“He comprehends, perfectly and personally, the full range of human suffering!”
Scriptures
