- 1 Nephi 18:17…Parents can die for grief of children
- “Often those who struggle with adversity ask the question ‘why did this happen to me?’ They spend sleepless nights wondering why they feel so lonely, sick, discouraged, oppressed, or brokenhearted. The question ‘why me?’ can be a difficult one to answer and often leads to frustration and despair. There is a better question to ask ourselves. That question is ‘what could I learn from this experience?’ The way we answer that question may determine the quality of our lives not only on this earth but also in the eternities to come. Though our trials are diverse, there is one thing the Lord expects of us no matter our difficulties and sorrows: He expects us to press on.” Joseph B. Wirthlin, Ensign, Nov. 2004, 101
- “No grief is so great, no pain so profound, no burden so unbearable that is beyond His healing touch.” Joseph B. Wirthlin, Ensign, Apr. 2001, 9
