How Marvelous is Life



How marvelous is life
As we turn away from sins,
To walk the path of Christ,
And feel forgiveness within

Repentant ...testimony roots
Converted, we're healed of offense
How sweet the gospel fruits:
Joy and peace of conscience


Divine Forgiveness

“I testify that the Savior is able and eager to forgive our sins. Except for the sins of those few who choose perdition after having known a fulness, there is no sin that cannot be forgiven (see Boyd K. Packer, “The Brilliant Morning of Forgiveness,” Ensign, Nov. 1995, 19). What a marvelous privilege for each of us to turn away from our sins and to come unto Christ. Divine forgiveness is one of the sweetest fruits of the gospel, removing guilt and pain from our hearts and replacing them with joy and peace of conscience. Jesus declares, ‘Will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?’ (3 Nephi 9:13).”
Neil L. Andersen, “Repent . . . That I May Heal You,” Ensign, Nov. 2009, 40-41
