Today will be remembered as one of the "worst of times" in the history of our country. Understanding that the Lord's plan is based on agency doesn't make trials and tragedy easier, but it does give purpose to our most difficult and dark days.

If you are personally going through a really tough time, keep moving forward. One day you'll look back and see the Lord's hand where you can't see it right now. You'll look back and see He really was guiding your path when you felt He was being torturously silent.
