I just re-read one of my favorite chapters of the Book of Mormon, 3 Nephi 17. Every time I read this chapter, I am overwhelmed by the spirit. I am reminded how much the Lord loves each of us individually. It is just amazing that the Savior can sense the needs/thoughts/desires of the entire multitude and meet those needs while still serving each person separately. How amazing would it have been to be there and have the Savior pull you to His knee, bless you, and heal you. I think of how the parents must have wept as He called all the children to Him. It must have been comforting to behold the Lord embrace each child and know no matter the destruction around them, that they were all encircled in the arms of His love.
At this very moment, I feel how much I am loved. I know if the Savior was here right now, He would ask me to come to Him and then He would embrace me. I know I am encircled in the arms of His love. I know we all are. This knowledge is truly one of the most magnificent things I possess.
