May we be strengthened with the understanding that being blessed does not mean that we shall always be spared all the disappointments and difficulties of life.

A Mormon knows that the promises of God are true, and He said that all will be tried; realizing these things the Latter-day Saints will acknowledge their Maker not only in blessings but also in tribulations.

Let every man feel that he is the architect and builder of his own life, and that he proposes to make a success of it by working.
