    God is ALWAYS THERE WHEN WE NEED HIM.. about 20 years ago , my daughter, pregant with her first daughter , and I , were on an icy road and my vehicle was heading straight for a snowplow in front of us .. I did nt know what to do to avoid it and I prayed.. God please help me...suddenly I felt one hand on each of my hands , steering the wheel ever so slightly to the left , then so slightly to the right and we passed the snowplow without hitting it. . . I felt these gentle hands on mine and i know God Saved us that day.. I will never forget that cold winter day.

    This message is just as powerful now as it was when Elder Holland delivered it in General Conference. There is no more powerful message in all the world than that of Jesus Christ's ability & loving desire to save us & lift us during our times of need.
    (Helaman 5:12) And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.

    You too can pray anytime anywhere. God will hear. I was taught definitively the first time in my life last sunday in gospel essentials class. My teacher taught of prayer's power. She said it can change lives. Now, I pray whenever i need help, all day long, silently. I pray during driving, before bed, during work. I pray about everything: Fears, anxieties, help, He listens. And prayer is available to you too. Pray always.

    The older brother doubted or underestimated his younger brother's strength and ability to help him, but he saved his life. I think we somethings do the same with our local leaders, just because they may be younger then us or less experienced in life than us we doubt their advise or even avoid their counsel. If we have the faith the Lord will always provide the way.

    This is very close to my dads story my father was and still currently is in the us military. He and his team were climbing a ledge about the same size as the one in this story and he was the last one up and his team made it to the top but as he was just about there he fell and landed on his head breaking his neck and shoulder if it weren't for his helmet he would not be here today. He was laying there for hours until he remembered his family back at home so he climbed he kept climbing and kept using us as his motivation and he made it to the top he pushed himself to get over but with only one arm to use he struggled and couldn't make it over. He then prayed the lord prayer and he reached his hand up on top of the ledge and a hand came out reaching for his it was my uncle his brother who was in the same group. He asked "where were you" my father replied "I fell".
    If he wouldn't of thought of his family back at home in Wisconsin and if he hadn't prayed to god for forgiveness he wouldn't of made it since his fellow soldiers would have been to late and my father would have been killed by the terrorists that hundreds of thousands soldiers risk their life to kill and eliminate.

    This made me cry because I was thinking what I've been doing wrong and what I've been doing in live and I seen it a light and it showed me what I was doing wrong in life 😢😢🙏🏼 God bless you guys

    I admire the courage of this young man, to lift his brother on his shoulders to safety. We can all be lifted on the shoulders of Jesus Christ. He will uphold us when we are afraid and return us to a place of tranquility and balance.
