Sacrament Service
Try to see above the rubble in your life.
After trials joy will always follow if we don’t get in the way.
If things go back to normal too quickly after a trial, then we can miss opportunities.

2 Nephi 9:14
14 Wherefore, we shall have a perfect knowledge of all our guilt, and our uncleanness, and our nakedness; and the righteous shall have a perfect knowledge of their enjoyment, and their righteousness, being clothed with purity, yea, even with the robe of righteousness.
We will end up where we are comfortable and we choose everyday what we are comfortable with.
Moroni 7:28
28 For he hath answered the ends of the law, and he claimeth all those who have faith in him; and they who have faith in him will cleave unto every good thing; wherefore he advocateth the cause of the children of men; and he dwelleth eternally in the heavens.
"Nothing man could do for himself could bring him past that judgment bar successfully without such an Advocate. That is why eternal life is always a gift, and those who receive it do so by “inheritance.” It is interesting to note that the word inherit and its cognate words are used seventy-eight times in the Doctrine and Covenants, while the word earned and its related words are not used once." (Gerald N. Lund, “Salvation: By Grace or by Works”, Ensign April 1981)
“Significantly, the Savior pleads our cause before the Father and asks that those who believe on Him be spared the eternal demands of justice, not based on our innocence but on His atoning sacrifice. His case for our redemption from the penalty of sin is “the sufferings and death of him who did no sin” (D&C 45:4).” (Doctrine and Covenants Student Manual, Chapter 17)
