◦ Why Did God Put a Veil Between Us and Him? One Powerful ExplanationBruce C. Hafen and Marie K. Hafen, excerpted from “Faith Is Not Blind” – Not only does the veil keep us from remembering our premortal past, it also keeps us from seeing many things that are going on at the present. God and His angels almost always stay in their hiding places—except on those exquisitely rare occasions when He does part that veil. After the Savior’s Resurrection, for example, He saw and talked with two of His disciples on the road to Emmaus. They didn’t recognize Him. When He heard their disappointment about this Jesus in whom they had “trusted” (note the past tense), He saw that they had missed the core message of His…

◦ Why Elder Rasband Was Initially Disappointed with His Mission Call and the Scripture That Changed His MindElder Ronald A. Rasband, excerpted from “Led by Divine Design” – There was never any question in my mind that I would serve a mission. The only question I had was, “Where will I serve?” I thought I knew the answer. My dad went on a mission to Germany. My older brother went on a mission to Germany. My sister’s boyfriend—and future husband—went on a mission to Germany. I thought I was going to Germany too.

This challenge is only aggravated by many raising children alone or losing full custody of their children, losing friends and family, losing their homes, re-entering the…
