In my
Book of Mormon class this past week I
was really touched by our discussion of 3 Nephi 11:15, “And it came to pass
that the multitude went forth, and thrust their hands into his side, and did
feel the prints of the nails in his hands and in his feet; and this they did
do, going forth one by one until they had all gone forth, and did see with
their eyes and did feel with their hands, and did know of a surety and did bear
record, that it was he, of whom it was written by the prophets, that should
come.” This scripture speaks of Christ’s visit upon the earth after he was
resurrected. I love that it specifically says that Christ went forth among the
people “one by one”. This shows how individual His sacrifice was for each one
of us and how personally he knows us. His atonement was for all mankind, but it
was done for each of us individually not collectively. The Savior does know
what each of us needs and He will do for us exactly what we need. He loves each
one of us very personally and understands perfectly how we feel and if we reach
out to “touch” Him as he goes forth among us, He will show us and give us
exactly what we need to grow and change. He is the path to all righteousness
and joy. His intimate and infinite sacrifice is what makes all eternal joy possible.
