He is always there

Whenever these moments of our extremity come, we must not succumb to the fear that God has abandoned us or that He does not hear our prayers.  He does hear us.  He does see us.  He does love us.  When we are in dire circumstances and want to cry, "Where art thou?" it is imperative that we remember He is right there with us--where He has always been!  We must continue to believe, continue to have faith, continue to pray and plead with heaven, even if we feel for a time our prayers are not heard and that God has somehow gone away. He is there.  Our prayers are heard.  And when we weep He and the angels of heaven weep with us.  (Elder Jeffrey R Holland, Lessons from Liberty Jail, Ensign, Sep 09, 29)
