This week I chose Alma 7:12
"And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities."
I am in the process of writing a letter to my mission president and thought about this scripture. I attended my mission reunion the Friday before conference and he asked me if my testimony of the atonement had increased with our recent experiences, the answer is yes! It has! The Savior knows exactly what we need and when we need it because he has taken upon him our pains, infirmities and grief.
That verse (along with the verses on either side of it) is one of my all time favorites. I love Alma's testimony of the Savior and His mission and the power of the Atonement. Thanks for sharing your own testimony of the Atonement!
