Wilt thou be made whole?

Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?
by Elder Timothy J. Dyches


What stood out to me from this talk:

1. Jesus Christ heals body, mind, and spirit, and His healing  begins in faith.

2. As we draw near unto Him, we realize that mortality is meant to be difficult and the "opposition in all things" (2 Nephi 2:11) is not a flaw in the plan of Salvation, opposition, rather is the indispensable element of mortality and strengthens our will and refines our choices. The vicissitudes of life help us fashion an eternal relationship with God-and engrave His image upon our countenance as we yield our hearts to Him. (see Alma 5;19)

3. Have faith and patience in the  Savior's timing and purpose for you. 

4. Be assured the Savior will seek to mend our souls and heal our hearts. He waits at the door and knocks. Let us answer by beginning again to pray, repent, forgive, and forget. Let us love God and Serve our neighbor and stand in holy places with a life made clean.

5. Those who embrace His gospel and follow Him will be made whole and complete-"in his own time, and in his own way, and according to his own will" (D&C 86:88), by his tender mercies.
