“The Savior is our Good Samaritan, sent to heal the
brokenhearted. He comes to us when others pass us by. With compassion, He places
His healing balm on our wounds and binds them up. He carries us. He cares for
us. He bids us, ‘Come unto me.’ Jesus suffered pains and afflictions and
temptations of every kind that he might take upon him the pains and the
sicknesses of his people.
Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish;
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts; here tell your anguish.
Earth has no sorrow that heav’n cannot heal.
At a time of enormous suffering, the Lord told the Prophet
Joseph, ‘All these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy
good.’ How can painful wounds be for our good? In the crucible of earthly
trials, patiently move forward, and the Savior’s healing power will bring you
light, understanding, peace, and hope.” – Elder Neil L. Andersen
