He Will Help You



This message was put together with the intent to help all those who are trying to or have had to cope with death. Whether recent or long ago this message of the resurrection applies to each and everyone of us. I love the scripture shared at the very end of this video: "The grave hath no victory and the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ." I know that because of our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ, that all will rise again to live.

Listen to the words of a modern Apostle and Prophet of the Lord: "It is true. We live to die, and we die to live again. From an eternal perspective." May we all trust in the glorious truth that Christ took upon death so that each and everyone of us may live again. How full of love our God and Creator must be to provide his son, a perfect sacrifice to bear the burdens and pains of lives so that we too might live again if we follow him.

I also love this video because it shows a young man, Darren, reaching out to the Lord in anguish. It shows him struggling to overcome one of the hardest trials he will possibly ever encounter in life. Yet, through the grace and love of God he finds peace. He is assured through the power of the Holy Ghost that "Beans" is alright and that he just like our Savior wants us to live our life to the fullest.

I so testify with gratitude in my heart that this is true; in the name of our Mediator, even Jesus Christ.

The Relationships in our Lives

Have you ever stopped to think about all the people you have come to know throughout life? I have done this a time or two in my life and again the other day. The more I study it out in my mind the more I come to find I appreciate the role they have played in my life.

Each and everyone of us has a unique personality, background, and point of view. Part of being a christian is to be "willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life." 1
