The Plan of Mercy.
“And now, the plan of mercy could not be brought about
except an atonement should be made, therefore God himself atoned for the sins
of the world to bring about the plan of mercy, to appease the demands of
justices, that God might be a perfect and
just God, and a merciful God.” (Alma 42:16)
God sent us here to mortality and except that he provided a
way for us to repent, and become clean we would not be able to return to our
heavenly home. A perfect, just and merciful God had to provide a way for our
return. He gave his only begotten Son to make that atonement. I am certain that
Christ felt every ill thought, every misdeed, every pain any of us ever felt. I
am just as certain that God feels those as well and pleads for our repentance.
I am so grateful for the plan of Mercy.
