"We don't know the meaning of all things, but we know that God loves us, and that is sufficient enough to get us by and through anything." - Neal A. Maxwell
God's love is a powerful thing, and it effects everyone, but it has a particularly potent affect on the perspectives of those who believe in it. When we look at this world, with all it's suffering and evil, we may sometimes wonder why God would put us all through this, but knowing that God loves us makes life a lot more bearable. It's not that knowing about God's love makes life less terrible; it just lets us know that there's a good reason for it. And knowing that God has good reasons for everything that happens helps us endure the necessary hardships. We don't know why some things happen, and we don't know why the world has to be so hard on people, but we know that God loves us, so we know that God wouldn't put us through mortal life without good reasons or without being with us every step of the way. Life can be difficult, but knowing that God loves us can help us get through it.
