You've heard the story a million times in various talks or Ensign articles. You know, the one where a downtrodden individual opens their scriptures to a random page and there they find the exact answer for a problem or the comfort they desperately seek. It's as if the scriptures are delivering a direct message from the Lord.
Don't get me wrong--I'm not knocking the story. It has been true for me multiple times in my life.
It just seems that every time I try this little exercise lately I always seem to end up in Doctrine and Covenants 122.
Should I be concerned?

Surely that is supposed to be comforting, right?
Good luck with that!
You are only tried with as much as you can handle. You must be a really incredible and strong person!
If you're concerned, I suggest that the next time you try this little exercise you do it with a stand-alone Book of Mormon. That way, you can't end up at Doct&Cov 122. :)
(Don't try it with a Bible. If you end up in the Old Testament, you may discover some unpleasant things I wouldn't wish on anyone.)
