worthless and inadequate. Jesus covers us when we feel lost and discouraged. Jesus covers us when we feel abused and hurt. Jesus covers us when we feel defenseless and abandoned. The Savior's message to us isn't only "Come unto me", but "Come as you are". He doesn't say, "Go get your act together and then come back when you fit the mold." He says, "Let's start right where you are, and go from there." In Arabic the verb meaning to atone is kafat, which means "to embrace". Not only can we be covered, helped, and comforted by the Savior, but we can be "encircled about eternally in the arms of his love".
