Alma 34:41
"But that ye have patience, and bear with those afflictions, with a firm hope that ye shall one day rest from all your afflictions."
I love this outlook on life. Mortal life is full of hardships and trials, but they are not eternal. They are temporary and necessary. They stretch us and help us learn skills and become stronger. These are not lasting, though. One day, when we pass from this life, we will have rest! As long as we follow Christ and make and keep covenants, we will be able to rest from these afflictions and have true joy.
