Elder Richard G. Scott has said, "While you are passing
through [your trials], the pain and difficulty that comes from being enlarged
will continue. If all matters were immediately resolved at your first petition,
you could not grow. Your Father in Heaven and His Beloved Son love you
perfectly. They would not require you to experience a moment more of difficulty
than is absolutely needed for your personal benefit or for that of those you
love." (Richard G. Scott, "Trust in the Lord," Ensign, Nov.
1995, 1

Reading 9 – Elder Dallin H. Oaks has written: The issue for us is trusting God enough to
trust also His timing. If we can truly believe he has our welfare at heart, may
we not let his plans unfold as he thinks best? The same is true with the second
coming and with all those matters wherein our faith needs to include faith in
the Lord's timing for us personally, not just in His overall plans and
purposes. (Dallin H. Oaks: Even As I Am, p. 93)
Elder Mark E. Peterson has written that Asenath was not of
the forbidden Egyptian blood, but, was, in fact, a Semite, and that marriage by
Joseph to her was lawful. The true
religion was not in Egypt, except in the person of Joseph, so he taught Asenath
the true gospel. (Joseph of Egypt,
pp37-38)
