I couldn't have recieved this at a more perfect time

Every week I get a LDS nugget. It's a little thought or quote from one of the general authorities. This one came today and is very poingnant in my life right now.

"While most of our suffering is self- inflicted, some is caused by or permitted by God. This sobering reality calls for deep submissiveness, especially when God does not remove the cup from us. In such circumstances, when reminded about the premortal shouting for joy as this life's plan was unfolded (Job 38:7), we can perhaps be pardoned if, in some moments, we wonder what all the shouting was about."

--Neal A. Maxwell, "Willing to Submit", Ensign, May 1985

I've been studying that very talk for a couple of months now. Just posted on it too. We must be in need of similar things. Love you!
