Deep dives
Trials and suffering as opportunities for growth
Trials and difficulties should be seen as opportunities for personal development and growth. Just as a crucible purges impurities and creates a new product, going through challenges can facilitate growth and the development of important attributes. It is important to shift our perspective from focusing on the pain and struggle towards what we can become as a result. God does not cause our suffering, but He can use it for our benefit and help us become more like Him. The Savior, through His own suffering, understands and can empathize with our trials, providing us with the support and guidance we need to overcome them. By seeing our challenges as opportunities for growth and looking for ways to learn and improve from them, we can transform our difficulties into stepping stones towards becoming better individuals.
