Gems-Teachings: The Challenges of Mortality
"When the challenges of mortality come, and they come for all of us,
it may seem hard to have faith and hard to believe. At these times only
faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His Atonement can bring us peace, hope,
and understanding. Only faith that He suffered for our sakes will give us
the strength to endure to the end. When we gain this faith, we experience a
mighty change of heart, and like Enos, we become stronger and begin to feel
a desire for the welfare of our brothers and sisters. We pray for them,
that they too will be lifted and strengthened through faith on the
Atonement of our Savior Jesus Christ."
(Elder Robert D. Hales, "Finding Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ," Ensign, Nov. 2004, 73)
