I got this quote in my email today on the "Come Follow Me" lesson guideline about Joseph and his brothers from Genesis 42-50.
“The sadness you have felt, the heartbreak, the loss, the suffocating feeling of betrayal, the upending of your life as you imagined it to be—I give you my absolute assurance, the Savior knows you and loves you. Reach out to Him. He is your comfort and strength; He will send His angels to bear you up. When will your pain be gone, your grief subdued, the unwanted memories forgotten? I do not know. But this I do know: He has the power to bring beauty from the ashes of your suffering.” – Elder Neil L. Andersen, “The Atoning Love of Jesus Christ,” General Conference, Oct. 2025
Joseph was betrayed by his brothers, but he never turned away from his Savior. He relied on Him. Jesus was there for Joseph and He will be there for you. Put your trust in Him. Reach out to Him. As Elder Anderson said, He knows you and loves you. He is your greatest source of comfort and strength. Jesus will send angels to help you.
I love my Savior so much. I'm so grateful for Him and all that He does for me. He is my greatest source of comfort, strength, and joy. Without Him, I would be lost. I know He sends angels to bear me up. Mortality is hard. But with our Savior, Jesus Christ, it is bearable. And even joyful. Even in our trials we can find joy through Christ.
That's my two cents.
