Suffering and Joy

Suffering does not mean we stand apart from the chosen of God. Elder Matthew S. Holland reminded us that when John the Revelator asked the Lord about those standing in white robes and praising God, the Lord replied, “These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Jesus Christ is the source of all joy, and He can heal all wounds and right every wrong. No matter the cause of our pain, relief comes from this one source.
