Watch Over and Strengthen – May 2000 – Henry B Eyring

“The Holy Ghost will tell you what to do when your own abilities and efforts are not enough (see John 14:26).”

There will always come a point in our lives when even with our best effort, even giving all our strength, it will not be enough.  Personally, I could not say I have had a moment like that, however, I feel I have overcome things that I could not have done without the Lord’s help.

Part of me wants to believe that we are far more capable than we give ourselves credit for.  I think we could do much, much more for good.  I think we spiritually sandbag it at times.  And I suppose we will be held accountable for the good we could have done if we had only pushed ourselves more, sacrificed more, given more effort.
