During Times of Trial: Come unto Him.

Everyone faces trials in this world. Even if it is not being able to find the right outfit to wear to school the next day, or battling a tough illness. Our Heavenly Father cares about the smallest things. And of course the harder trials we have. If we turn to Him through our trials, we will be blessed. But we must remember, that answers/blessings come to us in the Lord's time. So we need to have patience and endure our trials.

Sometimes members of the Church wonder why a certain trial is happening to them. However, the Lord gives us trials so we can learn and grow. He never gives us anything we cannot handle. He is here for us to turn to. President Henry B. Eyring, says it much better than I ever could. Below is an excerpt from his talk from the previous conference titled, "Mountains to Climb":

"Now, I wish to encourage those who are in the midst of hard trials, who feel their faith may be fading under the onslaught of troubles. Trouble itself can be your way to strengthen and finally gain unshakable faith. Moroni, the son of Mormon in the Book of Mormon, told us how that blessing could come to pass. He teaches the simple and sweet truth that acting on even a twig of faith allows God to grow it:

“And now, I, Moroni, would speak somewhat concerning these things; I would show unto the world that faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.

“For it was by faith that Christ showed himself unto our fathers, after he had risen from the dead; and he showed not himself unto them until after they had faith in him; wherefore, it must needs be that some had faith in him, for he showed himself not unto the world.

“But because of the faith of men he has shown himself unto the world, and glorified the name of the Father, and prepared a way that thereby others might be partakers of the heavenly gift, that they might hope for those things which they have not seen.

“Wherefore, ye may also have hope, and be partakers of the gift, if ye will but have faith."

 It is never too late to strengthen the foundation of faith. There is always time. With faith in the Savior, you can repent and plead for forgiveness. There is someone you can forgive. There is someone you can thank. There is someone you can serve and lift. You can do it wherever you are and however alone and deserted you may feel."

I am grateful for the prophets and apostles that we have on this Earth and I hope that we heed to their words. And I know that we can overcome any trial with Christ by our side. And I say that in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
