This quote by Elder Maxwell is thought provoking.
"Rather than simply passing through trials, we must allow trials to pass through us in ways that sanctify us."
--Elder Neil A Maxwell, "Enduring Well", April 1997 Ensign
It sounds like we need to learn from trials, not just endure them & hope we'll make it through them.
"Those who have felt the touch of the Master's hand somehow cannot explain the change which comes into their lives. There is a desire to live better, to serve faithfully, to walk humbly, and to be more like the Savior. Having received their spiritual eyesight and glimpsed the promises of eternity, they echo the words of the blind man to whom Jesus restored sight: 'One thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see' (John 9:25)."
--President Thomas S. Monson, "Anxiously Engaged", Ensign, Nov. 2004, 58
