Lessons from the Lost Wallet: Everything happens for reason

I learned...

1. Everything happens for a reason. Remember, if you can't drive, maybe someone else needs to learn how to drive. In 1 Nephi 17, Nephi is commanded to build a boat, and against all odds (not knowing how, starting from scratch, fighting against his older brothers), he does. I imagine that was pretty hard. But later on, in 2 Nephi 5,  specifically verse 15, Nephi uses the skills he learned building a boat to teach others how to make build buildings and work with the resources that were available in order to establish a city.
Please remember that we can use our trials to bless others. I promise you that someone can be blessed, and that serving others because of your trial, while still suffering, will help you overcome it.
