remember how merciful the lord hath been

The title of this post comes from the title of a talk by Elder Neal A. Maxwell given in the April 2004 General Conference. This was one of his last Conference addresses if not the last. It comes from Moroni 10:3.

Right now I am overwhelmed by the mercy and love of my Savior and Redeemer. This last semester has been horrendous. I didn't think I'd be able to pass any of my classes. I just saw my grades. One D-; three C+'s; three B+'s; one A-; and one A. I couldn't be happier. I know know that I have witnessed true and tender mercies of the Lord, and I am so grateful. I worked so hard and was certain it wouldn't be enough. Through His great goodness the difference was made up so that I could finish the semester and actually pass all nine courses.
