Sunday Thoughts: Knowing Christ

Today I taught Relief Society about having a testimony of Jesus Christ. One of the points I made was that we need to know Christ in order to be like Him. How can we be Christlike or follow Christ's example if we don't know what He was like? We have the scriptures, the opportunity to go to church every week, words from our prophets, testimonies etc for us to learn the stories of the Savior's examples and the characteristics He possesses. When we know how He was compassionate, charitable, selfless, faithful, a leader, perfect example, loving etc. we can better understand the way we need to conduct our lives in order to be like Him and return to our Heavenly Father.
