Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle. Growth is never by mere chance; it is the result of forces working together. Unity in marriage is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity. Growth often demands a temporary or even permanent surrender of perceived security.

“No
pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It
ministers to our education, to the development of such qualities as
patience, faith, fortitude and humility. All that we suffer and all that
we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our
characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more
tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God . . .
and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation, that we
gain the education that we come here to acquire and which will make us
more like our Father and Mother in heaven.” -Orson F. Whitney
