I wanted to share one of my favorite scriptures from the Book of Mormon: "And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord came to them in their afflictions, saying: Lift up your heads and be of good comfort, for I know of the covenant which ye have made unto me; and I will covenant with my people and deliver them out of bondage. And I will also ease the burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs, even while you are in bondage; and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions." (Mosiah 24:13-14)
I know that the Lord truly does visit us in our afflictions. I have seen it in so many people, both family, friends, and strangers. I've seen it in my own life. God is completely aware of us and will help us through the hard times.
