Calm Waters Does Not a Strong Sailor Make

Many trials are not visible to others, however, they still wage just as big of a storm within our hearts. We have all dealt with DESPAIR, DISCOURAGEMENT, or DOUBT. These types of trials can be especially difficult because they are very personal and private and we often choose to handle them alone. In the following handouts, several sisters share with us their personal experiences of overcoming challenges and becoming stronger as a result. These inspiring stories remind us that trials are part of Heavenly Father's plan so we may be proven worthy to return with Him again. They encourage us to have faith to continue trying, to know the Lord is with us, and they reassure us that rich are the blessings in store if we will but endure life's trials faithfully.
