Day 34- Atonement Insight

President Spencer Kimball state, "Jesus saw sin as wrong but also was able to see sin as springing from deep and unmet needs on the part of the sinner. This permitted him to condemn the sin without condemning the individual. We can show forth our love for others even when we are called upon to correct them. We need to be able to look deeply enough into the lives of others to see the basic causes for their failures and short-comings." I think part of the atonement is realizing that every human sins, and we all need help from the Lord with no exemptions. This knowledge allows us to condemn the sin but not the sinner, and more importantly to show greater love and kindness to the sinner and inviting them to return to the fold.
