Jesus knowing all our pain doesn't bring me comfort.
I may sound like a psychopath asking this, but what is the point of Christ perfectly knowing all our pains and trials with His Atonement?
When I've been in pain, knowing Christ has gone through the exact same thing has brought me little to no comfort. I don't feel peace knowing someone else has felt my pain too. When I'm in pain, I want it gone.
I may just be overly cynical with this subject, but I would love to know other people's perspectives on how Christ suffering for EVERY sin and affliction has helped them. I desperately want my perspective changed on this because it's just an aspect of the gospel that's never connected with me.
Edit: this meme sums up my feelings about it
might take me awhile to read all the responses. they've really helped! good to remember that Christ's Atonement is meant to both empathize AND lift us up. need to focus on the 2nd part as well as the 1st.
