"They're just... life. Things happen in life. A child is born with tender eyes. A man in crushed to death up against a wall. While another man has to flee from his home because he's been given the birthright blessing that his older brother expected to receive, and he doesn't want to fight with his brother. Are these things all the plan of God? Maybe. But they don't happen because God is angry with us. They happen because God wants us to find out what kind of people we are. When everything is going well, then it's easy to be nice to people and obey the commandments of God. When things are hard to bear, that's when we're tested... Maybe no matter what kind of life you have, you still have plenty of chanced to show how righteous or unrighteous you are."

Jesus Christ knows us all and loves us all. There is ALWAYS light at the end of the tunnel. Even when we can't see it, it's there. Things will work out. He could not and will not ever leave us behind.
