I decided to write up a chart showing Christ's miracles and the faith of those who preceeded them.
The day I decided to do this I ended up having five different opportunities to study the scriptures and articles written from General conference concerning topics such as hope as an anchor to the soul, the word of God, Pressing forward and being steadfast, and others that were all related to faith. It gave me hope.

It
was an interesting day when I did this assignment because I ended up reading
from many different passages that had to do with this same topic about faith
preceeding the miracle. I am thankful that I have had so many experiences with
seeing the result of my faith as I held on and receiving the blessings and
rewards of doing so. I think that I needed to be reminded of this principle in
a huge way as the things I have had to endure this past year have really taken
a toll on me. My diligence in doing the things I know I should has waned and I
know my Father is letting me know what I need to do. I am grateful that no
matter what happens, my God is bigger than any adversity I face. With Him on my
side, all things are possible.
