Tiffany’s story about reading the talk, recognizing herself as a Daughter of God, and receiving validation from the missionaries brought me to tears. It’s amazing how much purpose and meaning can come into our lives by learning our divine identity and feeling God’s love for us.
President Nelson said during this recent conference, “Every sincere seeker of Jesus Christ will find Him in the temple. You will feel His mercy. You will find answers to your most vexing questions. You will better comprehend the joy of His gospel.” I believe there are indeed vexing questions in life, like the very personal ones raised in this episode, that only Jesus Christ can help us answer through the guidance of the Spirit. I admire Tiffany for her courage in sharing the truth she has gained from her experiences, and for wisely pointing out that advice from friends and family, though well-meaning, can sometimes be hurtful.
Below is a quote from a great talk I read recently that I feel applies to helping loved ones who are hurting:
"Let us follow the Savior’s path and increase our compassion, diminish our tendency to judge, and stop being the inspectors of the spirituality of others. Listening with love is one of the greatest gifts we can offer, and we may be able to help carry or lift the heavy clouds that suffocate our loved ones and friends so that, through our love, they can once again feel the Holy Ghost and perceive the light that emanates from Jesus Christ." - Thru Cloud and Sunshine, Lord, Abide with Me!

Boneless chicken is amazing. 😂
On a serious note, thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing your story. While your bishop's reaction to your experience is wrong and sad, I'm happy you were able to still move forward with faith. Your example is so encouraging and beautiful!
