Something that I needed to hear

I was preparing to teach July's new song in primary and I was browsing the helpful website, http://www.sugardoddle.net/ and there was a post that linked me to this video by Jeffery R. Holland. (if the screen isn't wide enough, like half it cut off, you can click on the video and it will bring you to the orginal youtude page)



I couldn't make it through without crying.  The women seemed to be portraying my life, and I recognized how hard it is being a mother.  But I really didn't start bawling until Elder Holland said that we are doing the Lord's work, especially when it's hard.  The spirit bore testimony to me, that what he said was right.  I felt so comforted, especially since Patxi's deployment has been weighing heavier on my mind, especially since we're getting a daugther in less than 7 weeks.  Every now and then you need to hear that what you are stressing, worrying, and working yourself out for is worth it.  And not only that, but that Heavenly Father wants to help.  That had been on my mind as well, and I know that his help is there, if I'm just humble enough to take it.

So thank you to whoever made this video and to Elder Holland! This was something that I really needed to hear.  I hope that it will help you too.
