Description
Earlier in her life, General Relief Society Council member Rebecca Mehr experienced the pain and disappointment of divorce. In this episode, Rebecca shares how the divine help available to women through priesthood power and authority has shaped her eternal perspective on trials and hope. Rebecca offers insights into the hard-earned lessons learned through her unexpected life experiences, and the ultimate joy of becoming a stepparent and grandparent through her second marriage to Daniel Mehr in 2007. To those in the midst of life's messiness, Rebecca offers her assurance that the Lord "consecrates our afflictions for our gain."
