“If you have a pulse, you have a purpose” such an amazing quote! To anyone reading this, you have a purpose, you are wanted, you are loved! If you are feeling down, the best way to feel better is to make someone else feel better. I love you all!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was baptised today and am so thankful for the missionaries that came into my life and helped me! Just as she said, God will put people into your life for a reason!
I remember when an accumulation of life changing horrible things happened to me. I started to question how if God still loved me why He allowed me to suffer so much, why did He permit such awful things to happen. I got to the point I didn’t even want to live anymore. I got on my knees one morning, not wanting to go on and cried out, “God I need to know you love me, if you do make it clear”. I went on my way to work, got on the train and there were no seats. I was squashed up in a corner next to the connecting doors. A lady turned round to me, smiled and handed me a leaflet. All it said on it was ‘God Loves You’. I cannot begin to describe the feelings I had. God will not always speak to us in such an outright way, like in that situation. However I’ve learnt that God will permit us to have experiences of pain, heartache, sickness, loss and situations requiring much patience, but He knows it’s temporary and that we are learning traits from those experiences that will help us become who we need to be, and that we are never alone during it. Earth has no pain that heaven cannot heal ❤️
Come, ye disconsolate, wherever you languish. Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel. I’m so glad you did that and experienced such a clear answer to such a poignant prayer. God definitely works through the people around us and through the experiences we have, good and bad. In my trials, I try to find the lesson He’s teaching me so I don’t have to learn that lesson ever again!
It has been a rough time lately, with school and my parents being busy and just feeling alone and tired and constantly making mistakes. But this morning one of my sisters from the church reached out to me this morning and asked if I was doing okay, and she was worried about me this whole week. Later this late afternoon, I was scrolling through RU-vid and I came across this video and I just had the urge to watch it. I felt like I wasn't alone, and I felt loved and I feel hope again. So thank you, for posting this, it really helped me. I know the Savior lives, amen.
When I was a teenager, some friends and I would go visit the elderly at the nursing home every Sunday, singing hymns for the residents and visiting with them. I never realized how much an impact it made on our lives until much later.
What a fantastic message. This video clip will be shared this Sunday across the England and Wales Prison Radio, so that members and non members that are in custody can gain some hope.
"The best antidote I know for worry, is work. The best medicine for despair, is service. The best cure for weariness, is the challenge of helping someone who is even more tired" Gordon B Hinckley
Thank you, I'm 83 years old and the Ward organist and have been off and on depending on my calling for 51 years. Good music heals and draws us closer to God.
The media and videos the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints are producing are next level. Very impressive and beneficial to all. The best faith and Christ centered videos on RU-vid. Thank you very much 🙏🏽
I felt this on a deep level. I’ve been dealing with brain fog and memory loss for the past two years. Some days it feels like I’ll never be the same. Like I’ll never be able to go back to school and be successful. Like I’ll never amount to anything. Like I’ll be stuck this way forever. It makes things become really dark really quick. I want my brain to function the way it used to. For me, for my husband, for my future children. Sometimes I get upset and think “how can God expect me to have kids and be a good mom when I can’t even remember what my husband and I talked about yesterday?” But I keep going and just hope that He has one heck of a plan for me.
I feel like the lord truly speak to us in many ways. When this video pop up I felt like I had to watch it. I've have struggle with my faith over the years. I have been struggling with massive anxiety with life in general. I have been wondering why this is happening to me. Over the last few weeks I have been going through some real tough trials. I felt a loud voice in my head telling me that I can't miss the message in this video. It brought a hugh comfort to me. And made me feel a lot better.
Thank you for sharing. I struggle with anxiety and a life threatening illness. God loves you and he knows. He knows what you need when you need it. Don't ever give up.
What an inspiring story. Heavenly Father treated me like a kickball. All through my youth. Handicapped by severe add I didn’t recognize right from wrong. Around 17 I left the church behind. At 65 I returned to a wonderful Ward. A truly loving Bishop, and I was able to baptize my wife into the church. What a blessing. I began to get prepared to go to the temple, to eventually become married in the temple, and sealed to Janice for eternity. When everything suddenly stopped. I saw our stake President and attempted to engage him in what was my next step. He dismissed me out of hand stating I needed to discuss this with my Bishop, I had already done that, and to be dismissed so out of hand, in an arrogant fashion was crushing to me. My hard work was all for nothing it seemed and here I was in the same place as in my youth. And my wife of 30 years passed away after 17 years. Left me alone. I told myself she was with Heavenly Father, in good hands. Shorty after the same arrogant Stake President, broke our loving ward in two, and forced us to go to a Ward that was struggling, and it became obvious was poorly led in my view. It became obvious to me as things really stalled, and nothing came to be, despite assurances to the contrary from the leadership. I prayed for guidance and strength, but always arrived at the same conclusion. Give up, leave again, every time. I feel abandoned in my quest. And have stopped attending regularly. Still asking for guidance, strength and understanding. But never finding peace. I’m struggling to remain on task, to walk my covenant path. But still my increasing distance from the Ward is leading me away again. Failing health is making it harder to remain. I feel abandoned in my task. I hope and pray I find the inspiration as you did. God bless you Sister. You are stronger than I.
Gary, thanks for sharing your story too! That is quite a journey you've been on. This mere paragraph that took me only moments to read represents a lifetime of experience and thought, weakness and strength, doubt and faith, suffering and triumph. I don't know your whole story, obviously, but I want you to know that you are not alone. Some of my loved ones are taking a bit of a detour from religion at present and I see them in your story. I hope and pray that they will turn to the Lord in their life like you have tried to. Your loved ones - living or not - are pulling for you too. :) Hang in there and give it another go! You're not alone, even if just some random guy on the internet says so, you know at least one person is thinking and praying for you - but certainly its more than that. :)
I love that she heard this prompting with music playing on her ear buds AND THEN she heard the prompting again even louder when she turned to leave. I always worry that I am missing so much personal revelation in my life because my life seems so loud and busy with my kids and homeschool but this is a testimony to me that the Spirit will get through to me and my heart, even if its really loud at the moment.
I have been struggling so much lately and for this video to be suggested is truly a blessing. I'm going through something very similar and it amazes me how when I am at my lowest I receive this inspiration and am shown I am not abandoned. I am grateful for my blessings and also my tribulations for both make me feel loved by our Heavenly Father. He has a plan for all of us and we should trust in His plan. Thank you to this young lady for sharing her testimony.
Emily, thank you for sharing your story. It has lifted me so much. My life is in a similar place where a car accident has caused neck and brain injuries and I really have been wondering if my life will ever be the same again. This video feels like it was made just for me. Thank you.
God loves us so much He is willing to let us make our own mistakes. That goes for everyone. We are on this Earth for experiences. Most bad things that happen are due to either people who think they are in the right but are wrong, people who don't know better, people who are careless. God filled Emily's heart to help not only her friend, but also filled her friend's heart to help her.
Don't forget that if you have a pulse you have a purpose!! Let's all help each other out and find that purpose. God is with us, and if we look to Him He will help us find it. 🙏 Stay. You are loved and can live the life you want
I'm literally in the darkest moment where God had opened my eyes on the things I forced to be good or wanting things to be In my way. But God showed me that, the challenges we are going through are exactly what we needed in order for us to grow.
If I can go to church, I can go out and serve as much as I have energy. And then do at home, what I should do to make life better here….until I can find a more permanent place.
She had faith even though He didn’t answer why it happened but sent those two together to learn together. It takes ears to hear, and follow. I appreciate this!
Thank you SO very much for sharing your story with us!! I too have been going through many hard trials and needed to hear this today! Much love to you, Emily! 🥰 Bless you to be able to get up every day and fight on!!
I remembered I was afraid of satan and hell for the longest time. I have sinned before and I am not afraid to say it. I tried every day for a year to get over the guilt of my sins and get satan out of my head. I kept hearing in my head "god left you" "God doesn't love you." "God is sending you to hell.." I fought back and just that same day every single day, I broke down crying praying to the Lord to save my soul. This leads up to me having depression and having random breakdowns. after months and months of praying and repenting. The Lord saved me over time, chased satan away, and here I stand loving god. I found his beauty and grace in little steps and sometimes big just like she did. I am now 14 and still running and living my life to the best with the lord by my side. Love the Lord and God will all your heart, for they love you with theres. Amen. 🙏
This video was in my subscription list. I needed it a lot, I love hearing experiences where people experience revelation personally and I can apply it to my life.
Thanks for your comment. We're sorry you're hurting. It can be difficult to understand why God allows bad things to happen, or how he can allow people to hurt and harm others. We don’t have all the answers, but we know that using God-given agency, we chose to come to earth for the opportunity to experience mortality and ultimately become more like our Heavenly Father, knowing and accepting it would involve pain and difficulty. God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to save us from our sins and help us find meaning and happiness despite life’s trials.

That same thing happened when I was flying two sons across country in a small aircraft. I was prompted to land, but explained it away, but the voice came a second time louder, so I landed at the next airport. Checking fuel, we were out! I'm so glad I listened to that still, small voice that was increasing in intensity the second time! We all three still have a pulse. Must be a purpose...
I want to add my testimony that god answers prayers. I have been thru the ringer spiritually but if you seek him he will find you. He helped me thru my depression and helps me still. I know understand his love better and my errors. So much to write but if continually seek him out he is there. If you obey his commandments and show him your hearts desire to live righteously he will answer. God is great and Jesus love us and wants us to return to them. Jesus Christ is our savior and redeemer and made a way to come home. No matter how deep you have sunk in depth of sin his hand is awaiting yours to grasp and pull you out or if whatever it is that hurts he will heal you. Invite him and he will come in. ❤️
There is always a place to serve and minister to others. The reason we see so much anger, fear and conflict during this Pandemic is because so many people turn inward and not out to help others. Not believing in God is one thing, personally I do not know how people can not believe and be happy. But, regardless, too many turn to selfish wallowing in narcissistic pity and end up in a meaningless lifestyle. Suicide and suicidal thoughts follow. There is always someone out there that needs the unique abilities you offer or you are simply in the right place at the right time. Pull yourself up, out and to serve!
Remember, HEAVENLY MOTHER is the major reason why, HEAVENLY FATHER'S happy, because BELOVED HOLY HEAVENLY MOTHER is, HEAVENLY FATHER'S (Greatest) (Helper.)
Sometime in our life. God allows us to go through the valley of the shadow of death. He takes us through trials, difficulties, testing just how strong our faith is in him. God sends us through these dark days to conform us into his image. When pride and selfishness is on the throne of our heart. That leaves no room for God to sit and dwell. But when we humble ourselves and cry out to Christ in our moment of dispare. He will answer us. Psalms 40 is a very good chapter to read when you are feeling down. I want to encourage you to ask yourself this one question the next time you are going through a trial in your life. Jesus what are you trying to teach me in this trial because its so easy to focus so much on the trial that we take our focus of of Christ. Remember Job how God allowed the devil to take everything from him even his health. He said in all this trial. Blessed be the name of the Lord. The lord gives and takes away. Godbless you all in your walk with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ok can I just say that was a very inspiring message and its showed so much about how we can help others, but also, I absolutely love her hair! so gorgeous!
You know I thought about this for a while now and really tough experiences teach us the best becausethen we get prepared to deal with what may come after. One time I was riding the bus and this guy said that his wife does everything for their sons she pays their bills Cooks their meals does their laundry and they're in their thirties. There is no value in having an easy life. Again I recognize that nobody likes tough experiences but that's really how we learn best.
