Life has a way of taking unexpected turns, and for many single adults, the thought of starting over after a major loss—whether a divorce, the passing of a spouse, or years of waiting for love—can feel overwhelming. But as Colonel Wesley L. Fox once said, “You are never too old to start over.” In our latest LILY Tube episode, we share a powerful discussion on this very topic, drawing from both personal experience and scriptural promises of restoration. Jeff opens up about one of the most difficult nights of his life—stranded and broke on New Year’s Eve, believing his best years were behind him. But through faith, perseverance, and trust in God's plan, he discovered that God truly does restore what feels lost.
This message is the focus of Jeff’s recent Meridian Magazine article, where he explores how the Lord fulfills His promise in Joel 2:25: “I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten.” Many who have suffered loss feel as though years have been wasted, but as Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin taught, “The Lord compensates the faithful for every loss.” The trials of our past—though painful—are not meaningless. They shape us, refine us, and prepare us for the blessings ahead. The article dives deep into how personal growth, increased faith, and even unexpected opportunities are part of the Lord’s way of restoring our lives in His own time and way.
