I read this the other day on my cousins blog, and it just really hit home! I wanted to share it with everyone!
Elder L. Tom Perry
"There are cycles of good and bad times, ups and downs, periods of joy and sadness, and times of plenty as well as scarcity.
When our lives turn in an unanticipated and undesirable direction, sometimes we experience stress and anxiety. One of the challenges of this mortal experience is to not allow the stresses and strains of life to get the better of us—to endure the varied seasons of life while remaining positive, even optimistic.
Perhaps when difficulties and challenges strike, we should have these hopeful words of Robert Browning etched in our minds:
“The best is yet to be”.
We can’t predict all the struggles and storms in life, not even the ones just around the next corner, but as persons of faith and hope, we know beyond the shadow of any doubt that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true and THE BEST IS YET TO COME"

I love how much peace that the gospel brings. It doesn't say that you won't feel uncomfortable, it says that if we hold fast, we'll make it through! Thanks for sharing, Shelby.
So true, Miss Shelby! I loved it!
