Just what I needed

5 Scriptures that will get you through almost anything.

1 Nephi 11:17 God loves His children

Moses 7:26-33 God allows evil in the world. He doesn't want it but we need to be tested. He weeps and He knows what we are going through.

Alma 14:13 Your woke isn't done. Don't let hardships define your life.

Alma 7: 11-12 He is there for us. We will not be tried more than we can handle. The spirit does come when you turn to the Lord. Christ suffered for us. It won't change the obstacles but with faith in the Lord we are given the strength to overcome. The atonement is not just for sinners.

D&C 101:32-36 Things are relieved for a purpose. Not in our time but in the Lords. He is protecting us, teaching us and making us better people. Line upon line. Precept upon precept. Patience in all things.

Don't let people say they can't change. Christ suffered for us. We were given the atonement. That gives us the ability to change. It's not an instant thing. It's not like turning on a light switch. Its like a sunrise. It takes time. It's slow but the light does come.

We need to have faith. I needed to hear so many of the things that were said in church today.

D&C 50:35 - And by giving heed and doing these things which ye have received, and which ye shall hereafter receive-and the kingdom is given you of the Father, and power to overcome all things which are not ordained of him-

New baby on the way.

My friend DeVere's wife is having a baby boy. She is 6 or 7 months along. I made them a blanket for their soon to be little one.

It was so fun to see again. It seems like its been forever.
