May 31 is my Rachel's birthday. I got to talk to her today, which was lovely (doesn't hasten as much as it used to).
As I reflected on the day, I was filled with gratitude for the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Because of the Atonement, I have a most beautiful, loving relationship with my dear sister
Because of Him, there is forgiveness-- given and received. There is healing and forgetting and the literal ability for things to be washed clean. Gone, save for the strengthened relationship of a redeemed situation. And because of that, I share a relationship with Rachel that is deeper and unlike any other relationship I have. I love her with a depth that is truly charity. I am so grateful for her and for our eternal, Christ-centered relationship I have with her. Not because we are perfect, but because He is.
