We are never alone!

           As wonderful as the gift of life is—and it is a wonderful gift—it also comes with many challenges. Some are small, while others may feel as if they are completely insurmountable. We can often feel lonely and helpless.

But I testify we are never on our own. Because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so.

His solitary journey brought great company for our little version of that path—the merciful care of our Father in Heaven, the unfailing companionship of this Beloved Son, the consummate gift of the Holy Ghost, angels in heaven, family members on both sides of the veil, prophets and apostles, teachers, leaders, friends. All of these and more have been given as companions for our mortal journey because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the Restoration of His gospel.

With nail-scarred hands, He extends grace to us, holding on to us and encouraging us, refusing to let us go until we are safely home in the embrace of Heavenly Parents.  – Jeffrey R Holland
