Rick WarrenHOST
If you're a Christian, God expects you to help others in their pain and in their grief.
Rick WarrenHOST
The Bible says this in 2 Corinthians 1, verses 3 and 4.
Rick WarrenHOST
God comforts us in our troubles so that we can comfort others in their troubles with the same comfort that we ourselves have received from God.
Rick WarrenHOST
So God helps us in our problems and our grief so we can help other people in their problems and their grief with the comfort we've received.

Patrick DaneGUEST
Let me give you two examples.
Patrick DaneGUEST
Proverbs 17.
Patrick DaneGUEST
Proverbs 17, verse 22, very specifically, where a merry heart doeth good like a medicine, but a broken spirit dryeth the bones.
Patrick DaneGUEST
And you hear that, oh, that's a wonderful saying.
Patrick DaneGUEST
I commit that to memory.
Patrick DaneGUEST
Well, there's a seeming conflict here then.
Patrick DaneGUEST
Because what do you do with those passages of Scripture where the Lord invites us, in fact, even commands us, in 3 Nephi 9 and 10, he does this very deliberately, that that there's no sacrifice that is acceptable but a broken heart and a contrite spirit.
Patrick DaneGUEST
What does it mean? Is there a difference in Proverbs 17 when he says, a broken spirit dryeth the bones? Is that different than having a broken heart? If there is, in what way? Or are they sister virtues in some way? Is having a broken spirit that dryeth the bones, is that a good thing or is that a bad thing? And that's caused me to really reflect, is there a conflict here between what I'm learning from Proverbs and what I'm learning from the resurrected Lord in the Book of Mormon? Let me give you another one.
Bruce MejiaHOST
It teaches us to choose the right type of friends.
Bruce MejiaHOST
Proverbs 17, verse 17 says, A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
Bruce MejiaHOST
Proverbs 27 states that the sweetness of a friend comes through hearty counsel, and that iron sharpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
Bruce MejiaHOST
Jesus even said, Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Lili De Hoyos AndersonHOST
Of course, chapter 17, verse 22, a merry heart doeth good like a medicine.
Lili De Hoyos AndersonHOST
And the last verse of Proverbs 17, even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise.
Lili De Hoyos AndersonHOST
Even if you're foolish, but you keep your mouth shut, you know, it looks pretty wise.
Lili De Hoyos AndersonHOST
And then, Again, the same idea in Proverbs 19, verse 8.
Wilson Van HooserHOST
It's not saying that fathers are never sorrowful over their foolish son, nor is it saying that mothers are never glad because of a wise son.
Wilson Van HooserHOST
No, it says in Proverbs 17, verse 25, And so, We can see elsewhere, of course, a wise son will make both parents glad, and a foolish son will make both parents sorrowful.
Wilson Van HooserHOST
But there is something peculiar to the father that makes him glad to see his son wise.
Wilson Van HooserHOST
And there is a unique pain that mothers feel when their son is living in foolishness.
