Facing Doubt and Discouragement
"In the gospel of Jesus Christ you have help from both sides of the veil, and you must never forget that. When disappointment and discouragement strike--and they will--you remember and never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see riding at reckless speed to come to our protection (see 2 Kgs. 6:16-17). They will always be there, these armies of heaven, in defense of Abraham's seed" (Jeffrey R. Holland, "For Times of Trouble," BYU Speeches, 1980, 45).
2 Kings 6:16-17
"And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them."
"And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his a eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha."
"And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his a eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha."
All I can say to that, is wow! Next time I feel alone, I'll have to visulize those horses and chariots coming to my aid!
