Through Endurance WE Conquer

Well so many things have happened. I had that horrible, wind-knocked-out of me feeling the last couple of weeks. It started off with getting the news that I have stage 1 colon cancer then 3 days later on the 28th of March, one of my good friends and sister, Roxanne, passed away suddenly. She has an 11 year old and a 17 year old son who are left behind here on earth. They are amazing young men and I know that Heavenly Father is going to help them to get through it and so is their church family and friends.
At first with all of this going on, I had a pity party for myself. Then I found this quote I wrote in the back of my scriptures and it basically is the latin for through endurance, we conquer. How true that is, just like Job in the Old Testament. He was able to get through his trials and tribulations through his faithful endurance. He lost EVERYTHING! Well almost everything that is, except for his faith and trust in God! He was blessed with more because of that endurance. He didn't expect to be blessed like that, but he was and it was because he endured. I can't see what the end result of my endurance will be, but I know the main thing is that I do trust in and have faith in my Heavenly Father. Endurance is my evidence of my trust and faith in Heavenly Father.
I want you my friends and family to know that I love you and am thankful for everyone of you.
