Natalie's post got me thinking about the Atonement. It reminded me of another C.S. Lewis quote that I really love : “God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain”.
What a priceless gift we have been given. Yes, there will be pain, but we can return to Him without stain. Thanks to our Savior and His atonement, it's possible. And I"m grateful.

I love the picture and the quote. They are both very comforting.
lovely, lovely. i love that picture. and the knowledge that we'll never be asked to endure more than we can handle.
great quote! wonderful picture as well.
i need to add you to my blog if that's ok with you? it'd be much easier to visit yours instead of going through natalie's and such. hope you don't mind. :)
I have to say I am seriously impressed with your blog Jan. In your first post you were reluctant to even start blogging with saying you didn't have anything interesting to share(SO not true). I read through your posts each day and they are all amazing and insightful. You were born to blog! You and Natalie! Good thing she talked you into it :)
Of course add me, Mel. Wow. And Holly, thank you! I still don't think I have a lot to say -- but I am sure finding that I enjoy saying it! :) I love reading everyone else's!
Great quote. I love this picture as well--It's so important to remember the Atonement, and I'm grateful for your reminder!
