Overcoming.

So, we all have weaknesses. It is a fact of life. Recently I've come to understand better what they really are.
first off, the difference between Sin and Weakness:

"Sin can lead us to hell, when Weakness can lead us to Heaven."

Weaknesses are meant to help us draw closer to, and rely more on our Heavenly Father.
In Ether, chapter 12, verse 27 is reads:  
 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.
My whole life, I (and every one who talked to me about this), related this as basically "if you are humble and work hard, Heavenly Father will take away your weaknesses!", when in reality He doesn't always take away those weaknesses, He will make you stronger so they aren't stumbling blocks anymore. When WE are weak, we can become stronger through His power.

Through Him, we can all do anything "For with God nothing shall be impossible." Luke 1:37


Be good! Remember who you are!
