Finding Strength in Jesus Christ. President Dallin H. Oaks, a counselor in the First Presidency shares his testimony of the Savior's power to succor, to help, every mortal pain and affliction, because of His atoning experience in mortality.

“He will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of His people.” Mortality is filled with frequent struggles, heartaches, and suffering. We and those we love suffer sickness; the death of a loved one. We all experience failure in our personal responsibilities, the feeling of rejection, racial and ethnic prejudices, and unemployment or other reverses in our plans. Some are born with physical or mental disabilities. For many, the infirmity of depression. Another painful affliction is the circumstance of singleness. The Savior has the power to succor—to help—every mortal pain and affliction. Sometimes His power heals an infirmity. Sometimes He succors or helps by giving us the strength or patience to endure our infirmities. Because of His atoning experience in mortality, our Savior is able to comfort, heal, and strengthen all men and women everywhere, but I believe He does so only for those who seek Him and ask for His help. Our Savior has revealed that He “descended below all things”. He knows of our anguish, and He is there for us. Like the good Samaritan, when He finds us wounded at the wayside, He will bind up our wounds and care for us. The healing and strengthening power of Jesus Christ and His Atonement is for all of us who will ask. #BecauseOfHim
