Courage is when your afraid but you keep on moving anyways

Lt. John Putnam who died at the age of 23 during World War II, said: “Courage is not the lack of fear but the ability to face it.”


I have come to understand how useless it is to dwell on the whys, what ifs, and if onlys
for which there likely will be no answers in mortality. To receive the Lord’s comfort, we
must exercise faith. The questions-Why me? Why our family? Why now? are usually
unanswerable questions. These questions detract from our spirituality and can destroy our
faith. We need to spend our time and energy building our faith by turning to the Lord and
asking for strength to overcome the pains and trials of this world and to endure to the end  for greater understanding
.” Elder Robert D. Hales
