Lots happened this week. We had Zone Conference on St. Patty's Day which was amazing as always and then my birthday was the next day and then the Relief Society's birthday was the next day!!! So lots of celebrations. It was awesome!

"Jesus specializes in the seemingly impossible. He came here to make the impossible possible, the irredeemable redeemable, to heal the unhealable, to right the unrightable, to promise the unpromisable. And He’s really good at it. In fact, He’s perfect at it." (Patrick Kearon, He is Risen With Healing in His Wings)

We had a great discussion with a Muslim lady this week. She doesn't believe that Jesus Christ was needed to save us from our sins and heartaches and to overcome death, but she believes He was a prophet and that He taught God's gospel. It just got me thinking of who and where I would be without Jesus--without a knowledge of His power and without a personal connection to Him that has taken years of tears and broken prayers to truly understand and LOVE HIM. So here's a brief testimony of my Jesus:
I know Him. I know He lives because I have felt Him HOLD me in my darkest times and cheer me on in the best times. He knows all of me and loves all of me. He has strengthened me. He is my Best Friend. I have no doubts in the power and healing of the Son of God. And I would be nothing without Him. What He did for me and you is the greatest act of love from both Him and Heavenly Father. He specializes in the impossible. And through Him I can too.
Talking to that lady really made me so grateful for the relationship I have with Jesus Christ and for all that His Atonement has helped me learn about God and perfect love. I wish I could have shown her all my experiences and helped her feel the pure love and joy that comes from knowing Jesus Christ! I want everyone to know Him. He is life changing.

Think back to experiences that have brought you closer to Jesus. Get to know Him in any way you can. He is your BFF!!!
