"The Lord has blessed you with a testimony of the truth. You have felt His influence and witnessed His power. And if you continue to seek Him, He will continue to grant you sacred experiences. With these and other spiritual gifts, you will be able not only to change your own life for the better but also to bless your homes, wards or branches, communities, cities, states, and nations with your goodness.
It may be hard to see that at times, but hold on a little longer, for 'eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him' and wait for Him (1 Corinthians 2:9; see also D&C 76:10; 133:45)" (Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “Hold on a Little Longer,” Liahona, Jan 2010, 4–8).
Hold on a little longer. Yes. He says, "You can do this!" I love that. We CAN do this. "You have a celestial pedigree and therefore have all the necessary talents to make your life an eternal success story." If I think of my life in those terms, then all of the little annoyances of the day seem to lessen and the demands seem to lighten. That is what we are after in our family - an eternal success story. All the rest is just details.
