Bearing Our Burdens with Hope | David A. Bednar
Being happy does not always mean being without hardship. Sometimes it means just the opposite. That principle is brought to life in this story of a young husband who is only able to make it home safely after his load grows much heavier.

Ammon and his brothers were missionaries. Sometimes they were hungry and tired, but they kept teaching about Jesus.
Ammon and his brothers went to a land far away to teach their enemies about Jesus.
Some men captured Ammon and took him to King Lamoni. Ammon told the king he wanted to serve him.
Ammon worked hard. He protected the king’s sheep from robbers. The king was grateful. He listened to Ammon.
Ammon taught the king about God and the scriptures. The king believed him. Many people were baptized because of Ammon’s good example.
Read about this story in Alma 17–19.

What Does Faith in God Look Like?
Artist Jenedy Paige illustrates what faith in God means to her after her son passed away and a painting concept came into her heart.
"My name is Jenedy and I'm an artist, and a mother, and an athlete. Twelve years ago when my son passed away, there was this concept for a painting that came into my heart and I've waited 12 years to actually bring it to the canvas and I want to tell you the story behind it. Ultimately, it brings us to the idea that God is there ready to catch us in all of our falls." —Jenedy Paige

Dallin H. Oaks on Establishing the Church in the Philippines
As an Apostle serving in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Dallin H. Oaks received the “unusual commission” to move to the Philippines and supervise the work there. President Oaks, now of the First Presidency, served as the Church’s Philippines Area president from 2002 to 2004.
When President Oaks, with his wife, Sister Kristen M. Oaks, arrived in the Philippines he witnessed the Church’s amazing growth for himself. But the late President Gordon B. Hinckley was “very concerned that we were baptizing a large number of people, but we were not seeing significant increases in the number of priesthood ordinations or first-time temple attendance.”
Sister Oaks said, “I remember when he called you and we went into his office, and it was his desire that we establish the Church more strongly in the Philippines.”
This Church News video, titled “Establishing the Church,” features President and Sister Oaks share their love for the Philippines.
“It was a wonderful thing to be there for two years,” said President Oaks.
“And I would have been happy to stay many more years,” added Sister Oaks.

Alma the Younger Repents | Book of Mormon Stories for Kids (9) | Mosiah 27
Alma was the prophet’s son. He was named for his father, but he didn’t believe what his father taught. He told people that the Church wasn’t true.
One day, an angel appeared to Alma. The angel told Alma to repent.
For three days, it was like Alma was asleep. He was thinking about his bad choices.
Then Alma prayed to be forgiven. And he was! He felt Jesus Christ’s love. Alma woke up and taught others about how Jesus saved him.
Read about this story in Mosiah 27.

Because of Jesus Christ We Can Navigate Life's Challenges
Because of Jesus Christ We Can Navigate Life's Challenges. President Russell M. Nelson, President and Prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints shares his testimony that He lives! He is our Advocate with the Father and our Redeemer.
As conflicts between nations escalate, and as corruption becomes increasingly commonplace, what can help us? What can help each of us with our personal struggles and with the rigorous challenge of living in these latter days? The prophet Lehi taught a principle for spiritual survival. “Men are, that they might have joy.” Joy comes from and because of Him. He is the source of all joy. As in all things, Jesus Christ is our ultimate exemplar, “who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross.” Think of that! In order for Him to endure the most excruciating experience ever endured on earth, our Savior focused on joy! And what was the joy that was set before Him? Surely it included the joy of cleansing, healing, and strengthening us; the joy of paying for the sins of all who would repent; the joy of making it possible for you and me to return home. Without His Resurrection, death would be the end. Our Savior’s Atonement made eternal life a possibility and immortality a reality for all. He lives! He is our Advocate with the Father, our Exemplar, and our Redeemer. #BecauseofHim

Finding Strength in Jesus Christ
Finding Strength in Jesus Christ. President Dallin H. Oaks, a counselor in the First Presidency shares his testimony of the Savior's power to succor, to help, every mortal pain and affliction, because of His atoning experience in mortality.
“He will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of His people.” Mortality is filled with frequent struggles, heartaches, and suffering. We and those we love suffer sickness; the death of a loved one. We all experience failure in our personal responsibilities, the feeling of rejection, racial and ethnic prejudices, and unemployment or other reverses in our plans. Some are born with physical or mental disabilities. For many, the infirmity of depression. Another painful affliction is the circumstance of singleness. The Savior has the power to succor—to help—every mortal pain and affliction. Sometimes His power heals an infirmity. Sometimes He succors or helps by giving us the strength or patience to endure our infirmities. Because of His atoning experience in mortality, our Savior is able to comfort, heal, and strengthen all men and women everywhere, but I believe He does so only for those who seek Him and ask for His help. Our Savior has revealed that He “descended below all things”. He knows of our anguish, and He is there for us. Like the good Samaritan, when He finds us wounded at the wayside, He will bind up our wounds and care for us. The healing and strengthening power of Jesus Christ and His Atonement is for all of us who will ask. #BecauseOfHim

Finding Peace: 5 Insights from the Savior's Words
Finding Peace: 5 Insights from the Savior's Words. President Henry B. Eyring, a counselor in the First Presidency shares his testimony and thoughts to help each of us find peace through Jesus' great sacrifice.
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” I have learned at least five truths from that teaching of the Savior. First, the gift of peace is given after we have the faith to keep His commandments. Second, the Holy Ghost will come and abide with us. Third, the Savior promises that as we keep our covenants, we can feel the love of the Father and the Son for each other and for us. Fourth, keeping the Lord’s commandments requires more than obedience. We are to love God with all our heart, might, mind, and soul. Fifth, it is clear that the Lord loves us. To pay the price of our sins so that we can—through our faith in Him and our repentance have the gift of the peace that “passeth all understanding,” in this life and with Him eternally. #BecauseofHim

Finding Comfort in Jesus Christ's Solitary Journey
Finding Comfort in Jesus Christ's Solitary Journey . Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles shares his testimony that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so.
Now I speak very carefully, even reverently, of what may have been the most difficult moment in all of this solitary journey to Atonement. That concluding descent into the paralyzing despair of divine withdrawal when He cries in ultimate loneliness, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” With all the conviction of my soul I testify that He did please His Father perfectly and that a perfect Father did not forsake His Son in that hour. Nevertheless, that the supreme sacrifice of His Son might be as complete as it was voluntary and solitary, the Father briefly withdrew from Jesus the comfort of His Spirit. It was required, indeed it was central to the significance of the Atonement, that this perfect Son who had never spoken ill nor done wrong nor touched an unclean thing had to know how the rest of humankind would feel when we did commit such sins. His Atonement to be infinite and eternal, He had to feel what it was like to die not only physically but spiritually. When the uttermost farthing had then been paid, then finally and mercifully, it was “finished.” Against all odds, Jesus of Nazareth, the living Son of the living God, restored physical life where death had held sway and brought joyful, spiritual redemption out of sin, hellish darkness, and despair. One of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so. This Easter week and always, may we stand by Jesus Christ “at all times and in all things, and in all places that [we] may be in, even until death,” for surely that is how He stood by us when it was unto death and when He had to stand entirely and utterly alone. #BecauseofHim

Transformed Through the Love of Jesus Christ
Transformed through the love of Jesus Christ through His perfect love for us . Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles shares his testimony of His perfect love for us and how our failures do not have to define us. They can refine us.
Because of God’s perfect love for us and the eternal sacrifice of Jesus Christ, our sins—both great and small—can be blotted out and remembered no more. The Savior’s infinite Atonement completely changes the way we may view our transgressions and imperfections. Instead of dwelling on them and feeling irredeemable or hopeless, we can learn from them and feel hopeful. Because of Jesus Christ, our failures do not have to define us. They can refine us. Like a musician rehearsing scales, we can see our missteps, flaws, and sins as opportunities for greater self-awareness, deeper and more honest love for others, and refinement through repentance. If we repent, mistakes do not disqualify us. They are part of our progress. We are all infants compared to the beings of glory and grandeur we are designed to become. No mortal being advances from crawling to walking to running without frequent stumbles, bumps, and bruises. That is how we learn. If we earnestly keep practicing, always striving to keep God’s commandments, and committing our efforts to repenting, enduring, and applying what we learn, line upon line, we will gather light into our souls. My beloved friends, your Heavenly Father loves you with a perfect love. He has proven His love in endless ways, but above all by giving His Only Begotten Son as a sacrifice. I extend to you my love and blessing at this joyful Easter season. Open your hearts to our Savior and Redeemer, no matter your circumstances, trials, sufferings, or mistakes; you can know that He lives, that He loves you, and that because of Him, you will never be alone. #BecauseofHim

Finding Help in Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ, because of His infinite and eternal sacrifice, has perfect empathy . Elder David A. Bednar, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles shares his testimony of the empathy and mercy extended through His sacrifice.
The Savior said: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light” Making and keeping sacred covenants yokes us to and with the Lord Jesus Christ. In essence, the Savior is beckoning us to rely upon and pull together with Him, even though our best efforts are not equal to and cannot be compared with His. As we trust in and pull our load with Him during the journey of mortality, truly His yoke is easy and His burden is light. We are not and never need be alone. We can press forward in our daily lives with heavenly help. Through the Savior’s Atonement we can receive capacity and “strength beyond [our] own” It is one thing to know that Jesus Christ came to the earth to die for us. But we also need to appreciate that the Lord desires, through His Atonement and by the power of the Holy Ghost, to enliven us. There is no physical pain, no spiritual wound, no anguish of soul or heartache, no infirmity or weakness you or I ever confront in mortality that the Savior did not experience first. In a moment of weakness we may cry out, “No one knows what it is like. No one understands.” But the Son of God perfectly knows and understands, for He has felt and borne our individual burdens. And because of His infinite and eternal sacrifice (see Alma 34:14), He has perfect empathy and can extend to us His arm of mercy and help us to do that which we could never do relying only upon our own power. Indeed, His yoke is easy and His burden is light. #BecauseofHim
