However long and hard the road

 

The unique burdens in each of our lives help us rely on the Holy Messiah.

"Hope is putting faith to work when doubting would be easier"

 

"The path of modern pioneers is not easy.

 

Burdens carried in the heart can be just as heavy as those pulled in a handcart." 

 

Dallin H. Oaks

 

To the heavy laden it is Christ's yoke, it is the power and peace of standing side by side with a

God that will provide the support, balance and the strength to meet our

challenges and endure our tasks here in the hardpan field of mortality."  

 

Howard W. Hunter

 

"Pray and seek for strength to change our circumstances

rather than praying for our circumstances to be changed."  

 

David A. Bednar

 

No matter our circumstances, no matter our challenges or trials, there is something in each day to enbrace and cherish. There is something in each day that can bring gratitude and joy if only we will see and appreciate it.

 

"Often in our most difficult times the only thing we can do is endure. We may have no idea what the final cost in suffering or sacrifice may be, but we can vow never to give up. In doing so we will learn that there is no worthy task so great nor burden so heavy that will not yield to our perseverance. We can make it. . . however long and hard the road."

If we could look into each others hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance and care.  

Marvin J Ashton

"The tests of life are tailored for our own best interests, and all will face the burdens best suited to their own mortal experience. In the end we will realize that God is merciful as well as just and that all the rules are fair. We can be reassured that our challenges will be the ones we needed, and conquering them will bring blessings we could have received in no other way."
