In this world filled with challenges, we do need help from time to time. Religion, eternal truth, and our missionaries are vital parts of that help.
Our Heavenly Father loves you. He has created you to be successful and to have joy.
Think of our physical sustenance. It is truly heaven-sent. The necessities of air, food, and water all come to us as gifts from a loving Heavenly Father.
Heavenly Father loves every one of His children. After all, He is their Father.
