alma 56: 1 - 17
what do you think moroni felt as he read this letter from helaman? when have messages or words from friends and family strengthened you during hard times?
--> when i went on my mission, my good friend devin made me a present that would keep on giving the whole time i was serving. he wrote me a letter for different emotions i might feel throughout my mission, then instructed me not to use them all at once, but a letter at a time as i was experiencing different things. i tried to hold off on all of them until i would really need a bit of encouragement, and that's exactly what those letters brought me! i was so grateful on the day that i felt inadequate beyond belief to open his letter and read the words of neil l. andersen - "you don't know everything, but you know enough." or to read "you are loved. everyone back home is rooting for you" on a discouraging day. simple reminders of beautiful things. i appreciated those letters more than he will ever know.
