Time and the Atonement Heal All

Prayers today for my dear friend Joni as she goes to the airport to bring home her son, James,  from a mission he's only been on for a few months.  He was having severe flashbacks of when he was 3 yrs and played with the gear shift while his dad was under the car working.  He heard his dad scream and his dad did die.  Only recently did he remember himself playing with the gearshift.  He had always remembered the scream.  After the 3 sessions the church allows on a mission it was determined he needs an honorable release and he comes home today.  They say it's PTSD and he'll need time to recover.  This is one of Dallin's best friends who he loves dearly and so do we.  James is in our thoughts and prayers today as we wait for time and the atonement to heal him and his family.

You know, sometimes all we can do is pray and wait on the Lord.

What happened? I think we are missing something. . . You are right, though, sometimes all we can do is pray and wait for the healing to happen.
