Keep Strong in your Faith during times of Tribulation

I always have to laugh when people learn that I am LDS, because they automatically assume that I don't struggle or have trials in my life. The one detail they always seem to skip right over is that I am human like them and have been sent to this earth to be tested and tried like them.

I had two very earth shattering and life changing experiences during high school that I thought I would never recover from. I struggled for quiet a long time and after trying many things that did not work I finally turned back to my Savior. That was one of the best decisions I have ever made and once I had turned everything back to our Savior and remembered to trust in Heavenly Father and his plan it has been easier to stay strong in my faith.

I once had a cousin tell me that if I was doing everything that was asked of me then I shouldn't have to face trials. That is simply not true. As members of the church if we are doing everything that is asked of us, then we are better prepared to handle the trials of this life.
