“The Savior said:
"‘Therefore, whoso heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock—
"‘And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock.
"‘And every one that heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them not shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand—
"‘And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell, and great was the fall of it' (3 Nephi 14: 24–27).
“It is interesting to notice that the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew against both houses! Living the gospel does not mean that we will everlastingly escape adversity. Rather, it means that we will be prepared to face and endure adversity more confidently.”
Rafael E. Pino, “Faith in Adversity,” Ensign, May 2009, 42
Absolutely! I have a very strong testimony of this one.
