“Where there is sunshine, shadows must be there too. Floods
can bring destruction, but they usually bring life as well. Tears of grief
often turn into tears of relief and happiness. Feelings of sadness when loved
ones depart are later compensated with the joy of meeting again. In periods of
war and destruction, many little acts of kindness and love are also happening
for those with eyes to see, and ears to hear. Our world today is often
characterized by fear and anxiety—fear of what the future might bring for us.
But Jesus has taught us to trust and look unto Him in every thought; doubt not,
fear not. Let us constantly make a very conscious effort to see both sides of
every coin allotted to us in our lives. Even though both sides might sometimes
not be immediately visible to us, we can know and trust that they are always
there.” – Elder Mathias Held
