Something Good Will Come

 I believe that something good will come out of any situation that we are placed in. It has to be something good right? Because something bad would be terrible. That something all depends on the situation we are facing at the moment. There isn't one answer to all situations. It doesn't work that way. I wish there were a blanket statement that could fix all things. But there isn't. That is a pipe dream.

Good and Bad situations come about because that's just how life rolls. Some happen because we did something to cause it. Others happen just because, no reason really. They just happen to us and we have to accept and deal with the outcome. Without consequences we wouldn't have the ability to change our behavior towards things. Life is full of those certain ways.

Now you may have a bad thing come out of a situation, but the good part is you've learned something. It was a learning lesson for you. Sometimes all we need is to be able to learn something from one another. Is that not the goal of the human life? To learn? I believe that's why we are here on Earth. To learn something from our mistakes and grow from the learning.

Learning has a way of healing our wounds. We can grow from the learning and heal the holes that have been placed in our heart and mind. I don't know exactly how that works, but it does. I have experienced it first-hand. As I'm sure many of you have experienced healing from learning.

If you hope for something good, it will come to you. It might not come to you right away, but eventually it will come to you. There's nothing wrong with that. It's okay to wish for something good to happen. No one wants anything bad to happen to them. That's just not right. The good things will come. There's no doubt to any of that.

It can be difficult waiting for the good things to come to your life. If there were anything I could say to make things feel better, I would say this. Hold on. The light at the end of the tunnel is near. You are so close, don't give up now.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
