Trials

It’s true, life is not fair. But that is not something that we are ever taught in the scriptures. Trials are taxing. They drain us emotionally, physically, and mentally. Some trials we bring upon ourselves by the choices we make. Others happen as a result of others’ choices or simply because the Lord allows us to experience them. When we live in a way that is pleasing to Heavenly Father we can have confidence that our struggles will not last forever. They may end later in this life or maybe not until we leave this earth. But as we keep the companionship of the spirit we are blessed with peace and strength to endure. Knowing that we are children of Heavenly Father can also bring strength. We have a divine destiny to fulfill. Our experiences, good or bad, are designed to strengthen and grow us. When we choose the right and endure faithfully we keep our connection to Heavenly Father. Trials are hard but by keeping the faith and showing love and kindness towards others we are blessed and we help other want to be better as well.
