Totally Unfair

Keep Trying

By Elder Marvin J. Ashton (1915–94)

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

From “If Thou Endure It Well,” Ensign, Nov. 1984, 20–22.

When family members disappoint us, we especially need to learn endurance. As long as we exercise love, patience, and understanding, even when no progress is apparent, we are not failing. We must keep trying. …

… Greatness is best measured by how well an individual responds to the happenings in life that appear to be totally unfair, unreasonable, and undeserved. …
