Quite often it's through scripture or General Conference, but more often than not it's from other people who lovingly share their trials, how they struggle to find peace and although for them it may seem they are just writing down thoughts - it's helpful for someone else. Today that someone is me. Though I don't have any major trials that I can see to share, it's those times when times are good that I need to be reminded of how grateful I should be and find someone who may be in need of service or kind words or something from the Lord through me.
I love this quote from Elder Wirthlin and I borrowed it from Melissa's blog:(Jeff's cousin)
"The Lord compensates the faithful for every loss. That which is taken away from those who love the Lord will be added unto them in His own way. While it may not come at the time we desire, the faithful will know that every tear today will eventually be returned a hundredfold with tears of rejoicing and gratitude." -Elder Wirthlin - November 2008 Ensign

How grateful I am for my family and the family I joined when I became a Risenmay.
