I will never forget this talk from conference Oct 2006. I remember the feeling vividly. It was one of those, "this talk is for me" feelings and I needed to cleave to this talk the way that I cleave to the talk "Cast not therefore away thy confidence."
I love when you have those teaching moments from the spirit. How I am thankful to know that this is true. I have seen so many Sundays in my life and have felt that relief from being broken and being renewed with hope and knowing that those darn Fridays won't last forever, that Sunday does come and so does the comfort, relief of pain, and understanding.
Some of the promises that I like that he makes in the talk are..
- No matter our desperation, no matter our grief, Sunday will come. In this life or the next, Sunday will come.
- In the darkness of our sorrow, Sunday will come.
- Because of our beloved Redeemer, we can lift up our voices, even in the midst of our darkest Fridays, and proclaim, “O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
- That we may always know that no matter how dark our Friday, Sunday will come
For any of you who are going through your Friday right now. Know that I love you. I know you can do it! It is worth every second of heartache, darkness or sorrow for the light that will shine when all is said and done!

I watched this on Sunday night...I love these videos.
One of my favorite talks ever. I have always, always loved it. P.s. I wouldn't venture to say I am currently facing a Friday ... but it's close. Any additional prayers would be appreciated! And if you ever need me to pray for YOU, I am so there! :)
Thanks Meg... I really REALLY needed to hear this...Love you!
