“To think of enduring to the end as ‘hanging in there,’ doing one’s duty relentlessly, is not inaccurate. Yet enduring to the end is more than outlasting and surviving, though it includes those qualities.
We are called upon, as was the Prophet Joseph, to ‘endure it well,’ gracefully, not grudgingly. (D&C 121:8.)
We are also told that we must ‘endure in faith.’ (D&C 101:35.) These dimensions of enduring are important to note. Likewise, we are asked to endure ‘valiantly.’ (D&C 121:29.)”
- Neal A. Maxwell, “Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward,” p. 109

Great quote.
I remember talking to this brilliant woman once and she mentioned that sometimes enduring to the end also means letting go and allowing ourselves to fall into His arms.
LOVE YOU
How often we forget these things when we are enduring ourselves. Thank you for the wonderful quote.
