Personal growth Quote by Marlin K. Jensen

““Sooner or later, all of us will encounter opposition and adversity… It is the common lot of all mankind… The list of opposing forces is nearly endless, and so are the blessings of personal growth and development if we have the faith to take the long view and endure it all well. I take great solace from the Lord’s words to Joseph Smith in Liberty Jail at a time when Joseph’s burdens were nearly unbearable: ‘Know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good’ (D&C 122:7).””
