Will the Circle Be Unbroken?

"...Their patience in their tribulations." (Alma 60:26) Our lives continued on revolving around home, school and Church. However, there were as always occasional - sometimes frequent bumps in the road. My bumps usually had to do with depression and anxiety having its roots in perfectionism and what some have called "spiritually dyslexia." The latter meaning to interpret a verse in Scripture or counsel from our Church leaders in the worst possible light, so I could use that to beat myself up. For the most part there was a lot of joy, blessings and happiness. I was ordained a high priest at a fairly young age, was called as High Priest Group Leader, and eventually a Counselor in the Bishopric. One day I was literally walking on air when one of my younger sisiters called me and asked me to baptized her. What a tremendous time that was when her little family that had suffered so much were joing the rest of the family in the Church. That was in the Spring by the next Spring my sister was dead leaving three children behind to be raised by my parents, me and my other sister. This was difficult and very hard to understand. As my dear wife stood by and comforted my dying sister so she she did the same for me. My response was the same as it had been in almost all such situations - buckle down, build the fence higher and work harder. There were cracks appearing in the eternal circle and my distrust of the Lord was  slowly creeping in. More tribulations were to come.
