Growing Closer to God in Times of Change
By Sister Kristin M. Yee
Second Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency
I think the Lord is more interested in building a relationship with you and me than He is in our comfort in knowing what lies ahead.
He has promised His power, perspective, and peace as we prioritize our covenants and time with Him—in personal prayer, studying His word, repenting often, ministering in His name, engaging in His healing work of family history, and worshipping in His house, the house of the Lord.
I’ve learned that having faith, even great faith, does not preclude us from seeing our weaknesses and opportunities to change. In fact, the closer we come to Christ and become more like Him, the more we “see” by the Spirit those things we need to change.
Turning to Him in our humility and weakness builds trust and love.
Increasing our faith in Christ increases our peace in Christ.
