ATOMS stands for "Aaron's 'Things of My Soul'". As such, this blog is a compilation of my spiritual thoughts and insights as I study the scriptures, pray in faith, and have daily experiences. These things are the symbolic atoms that make up my life, and are personal to me. With the belief that "there hath no temptation [or experience or trial or joy] taken [me], but such as is common to man" (1 Corinthians 10:13), I post them in the hope that they bless someone, somewhere, somehow. If it be one soul, my joy is full.

Please feel free to browse, to search, to comment, to correct false doctrine you find, and to let me know if they have been positively (or negatively) influential to you.

It is my prayer that we all sail the seas of life with happiness, and obtain the wonderful blessings that God has in store for us, including living with our righteous loved ones forever, the answers to every question in life, and eternal happiness.

My posts are not to be taken as the official doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are a reflection of my progressive learning and growing into said doctrine, though.

Greater Than Us All

I think we all have found a song that hit us firmly and strongly, that seemed to reach deep into our souls, resonating with our deepest questions, our most heartfelt thoughts and beliefs.

Kenneth Cope's "Greater Than Us All" is one such song for me.

Before we all came to earth,
we lived together with God in His world.
He helped His children progress,
yet one advanced so much more than the rest,
He was greater than us all.

Then Father offered a plan.
He'd sends us off with a way to return again.
But this required a spotless Man,
One who'd be worthy to free us from sin,
Someone greater than us all.
And God's most humble Son
was the Greatest One of all.

We looked on Him,
God's best Son
would He give His great life for us?
Pay the price for all our sins?
And knowing no other could,
He humbly said He would.
He was greater than us all.
God's most humble Son
was the greatest One,
every heart felt of His love.
For us He'd come. The greatest One
of all.
