Day 312, December 21

"In the gospel of Jesus Christ you have help from both sides of the veil, and you must never forget that.  When disappointment and discouragement strike ... you remember and never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see riding at reckless speed to come to our protection."--Jeffrey R. Holland

What a beautiful image Elder Holland evokes with these words?  Who among us has not had times of discouragement and disappointment?  How would we respond if we truly believed that forces from both sides of the veil were there cheering us on, that horses and chariots of fire were coming to our aid?  Would we proceed with more courage, more confidence, more faith?

I think so.

So, for today, I am grateful for help from both sides of the veil.
