....... Enough

 
“It is well that we remember that the trials, difficulties, and experiences
of life all have purpose. There came to me on the occasion of a year in my
life to be remembered when the lovely sisters of our Relief Society wrote
this as a prayer in my behalf. It was entitled ‘May You Have’:
Enough happiness to keep you sweet,
Enough trials to keep you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human,
Enough hope to keep you happy,
Enough failure to keep you humble,
Enough success to keep you eager,
Enough wealth to meet your needs,
Enough enthusiasm to look forward,
Enough friends to give you comfort,
Enough faith to banish depression,
Enough determination to make each day better than yesterday.”
Harold B. Lee
 
Day after day, on your path toward your eternal destiny, increase your faith. Proclaim your faith! Let your faith show!”
Russell M. Nelson
 
“One of the advantages of having lived a long time is that you can often remember when you had it worse. I am grateful to have lived long enough to have known some of the blessings of adversity.”
James E. Faust
 
“When you are given a gift… if you want to keep it, you must take care of it.
It is the same with the gift of the Holy Ghost.”
Ann Jamison
 
It is in our adversities that we truly find & know The Savior and His love for us, He can take our heaviest burdens disappointments and heartache and in time replace them with peace that passeth all understanding.  We don’t know the answer or outcome to all things but we know God loves us and knowing that for the moment is Enough.
The winds were fierce and cold the night
He walked upon the sea.
Lord save us, called his frightened friends.
"Leave fears, and follow Me."

And so He calls to each of us
Upon our stormy seas.
Leave friends, leave gold, leave fears, leave all
And come, and follow Me."
