atonement.

In my current reading of the Book of Mormon I've had the question, "How do I access the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ?"

In each chapter of the Book of Mormon I've been trying to see what doctrine of the Atonement is being taught, or how the Atonement can help me in my day to day life.

Today I read 2 Nephi 4, also known as The Psalm of Nephi. Nephi talks about some of his trials, afflictions, and struggles, but then says "I know in whom I have trusted." He then goes on to expound on how he has been blessed and helped. I felt like the things he mentioned are all things that we have access to because Christ atoned for our sins, suffered for our afflictions and infirmities:

- He has been my support and preserved me through my afflictions
- I have been filled with his love
- He has confounded my enemies
- He has heard my cry
- He has given me knowledge
- Angels have come down and ministered to me
- Gives liberally if I ask not amiss.

That is a great list of things that we have access to on a daily basis if we choose to apply the Atonement in our lives.

Christ is our Savior, and we have access to these great blessings if we choose to seek for them.
