The Rest of the Story

So....He called last night from Philly.
"Happy anniversary" he said.
"And to you" I replied
We both laughed.
"It's a good thing I called to remind you" he said.
Again we laughed. "You found the card" I stated.
He felt dumb and told me what a beautiful sentiment the card had.
This morning he called and asked if he has a home to come home to. "Of course" I told him.
You know, it really does feel better to just laugh about it than to feel hurt. I am at peace. Thank you Heavenly Father for your strength and healing.
Happy conference! It has been fabulous so far!
This bears repeating:

-->
“And it came to pass that so great were their afflictions that they began to cry mightily to God.
“And it came to pass that the voice of the Lord came to them in their afflictions, saying: Lift up your heads and be of good comfort, for I know of the covenant which ye have made unto me; and I will covenant with my people and deliver them out of bondage.
“And I will also ease the burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs, even while you are in bondage; and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions.
“And now it came to pass that the burdens which were laid upon Alma and his brethren were made light; yea, the Lord did strengthen them that they could bear up their burdens with ease, and they did submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.” Mosiah 24: 10, 13-15
