Don't Shrink From Your Duty

After the tar and feathering...

"I cannot begin to imagine the pain and discomfort the Prophet Joseph must have endured. He had ample excuse not to preach the following morning, but this and many other experiences of similar or worse consequence did not cause him to shrink from his responsibility. How, then, can we feel justified if we shrink from our duty because of a minor discomfort or inconvenience?"

Elder Michael John U. Teh, "Confidence in the Presence of God," Ensign, Jan 2009, 30.
