How does tribulation bless us?

Thomas R. Valletta

Elder D. Todd Christofferson noted: “The very experience of enduring chastening can refine us and prepare us for greater spiritual privileges” (“‘As Many As I Love,’” 98).

President John Taylor observed: “I used to think, if I were the Lord, I would not suffer people to be tried as they are. But I have changed my mind on that subject. Now I think I would, if I were the Lord, because it purges out the meanness and corruption that stick around the Saints, like flies around molasses” (in Journal of Discourses, 5:115) .
