I apologize for not posting this yesterday, I had a rough night:
One thing that has consistently been a source of strength and light in my life is the scriptures. If I turn to them with a willing and open heart, I am very often able to receive answers to the questions I have, even if they may not be the answers I want. I want to #GiveThanks for the scriptures.
Scriptures
Whatever you are feeling,
Whatever’s in your heart,
Someone else has felt it too,
And recorded it, in part.
Have you ever just felt lonely?
Moroni knows how that is.
His family dead, his life in danger,
You can read how he lived.
And what about discouraged?
Alma and Amulek have this addressed:
Read of how they carried on
When in prison, with seemingly no success.
When you feel like everyone’s against you,
Nephi’s got your back.
His brothers murmured and even beat him,
But read how his kindness never lacked.
And any feeling you’ve ever felt
Has been felt by our Savior, dear.
Read how He died so you can live,
When you need Him, He’ll be near.
These heroes of the pages
Really lived, and really felt
The emotions that I’ve gone through,
I can read, and look to them for help.
