The Hand of the Lord in Your Life

argentina update,
                           isnt it great to see the hand of the Lord in your life? honestly He has been lifting me up for my whole life, i just havent noticed it until ive been out here and litereally in His hands. in the mission tough times smack you in the face out of nowhere. things turn south, then they rocket boost straight down. ive thought to myself alot about whats happening and it seems to me that there is hardly ever an easy way through the pain. something that ive noticed though just keeps re-occuring as i face harder and harder times. i get beat down and low in the dirt, try to get through it with a smile, then things get harder. i have in those times been to the point of not knowing what else to do. but then something triggers inside my head. and i say ´hey after this im going to be more manly and strong´, hah. its strange yes but i tell myself that. then i face the whirlwind of tribulation that is in front of my with my chin held high. once i say i can do it, the Lord´s hand swoops in and takes all the burden away. to be honest its incredible. and i even sometimes feel like i wish the burden didnt get lifted or made easier but it did! we are always helped out in our lives. sometimes it doesnt seem like the help is coming at all. but once we buck up to face the odds, we are givin strength, we gain confidence in ourselfes and in others, and we fight through the bad and burst out into a world that we can handle. sorry if thats confusing haha im slightly confused myself. but i know its true, be safe, love elder hayden summers

  1. Hayden is so right, as you give that burden to the Lord through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, Heavenly Father and Christ is there to lift you up and walk with you. Keep the Faith all things will work out for the good.
