The truth seems in short supply these days. Politicians lie to their constituents. Athletes lie about their drug use. Media personalities lie to everyone.
So, when I hear the truth, I sit up and take notice.
A week and a half ago, a testimony was borne in our Fast and Testimony Meeting about the living Christ. The speaker's voice held such conviction that I found myself blinking back tears.
Christ lives.
He is not, as some would try to tell us, just a great teacher who lived 2000 years ago. He is not a mythical character made up so parents can teach their children moral principles. He is a real Personage who, with the Father and the Holy Ghost, make up the Godhead.
So, for today, I am grateful for the truth that Christ lives.
Some of my favorite hymns are I believe in Christ and I know that my Redeemer Lives. So very powerful and I often find myself getting choked up and barely able to sing as we sing them in church.
