Overcoming Challenges

It is 3: 38 am. here in Lima Peru, It is a miracle for me that in spite of the fact of all the challenges we have been facing I have been able to pay my rent, feed my family and buy materials for school now the school year has begun, I am more than thankful to the lord for the blessings, This week I thought the lessons were personally designed for me As I read from president Thomas S. Monson in the reading " looking back and moving forward" " It was said of the Savior that He went about doing good... for God was with him" I have not complained about my challenges but at times it was tiring and sometimes frustrating not being able to do the things I wanted to do. Prayers with my family have helped a lot though.I tried then to be in good shape to help others in spite of my own difficulties. I also found Inspiring the words of Elder Jeffrey R Holland when he cited Winston Churchill in his speech "However Long and Hard the Road" “I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this Government: ‘I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.’“We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask what is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all our strength that God can give us: … That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory—victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror; victory, however long and hard the road may be” (Churchill, the Life Triumphant, American Heritage Publishing Co., 1965, p. 90). I will keep moving forward From the e- video I learned to ask the proper question to find the problems that most of the time are humans. I want also to mention that in this part of my life the video "Good things to come" I have watched before, this time has a special meaning and effect. I even shared it on my facebook account and quoted this: "Don't you quit, you keep walking, you keep trying, there is help and happiness ahead, some blessings come soon, some come late, AND SOME DON'T COME TILL HEAVEN, but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, They come, it will be alright in the end, TRUST GOD, and believe in good things to come" I feel like this these days. the other thing that helped me a lot was the report I made on mentor session 4. It made me think and be aware about important things that are going to be useful in my entrepreneurial journey.
