"When in situations of stress we wonder if there is any more in us to
give, we can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity
perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail or
to be wicked. When we have been weighed and found wanting, let us
remember that we were measured before and we were found equal to our
tasks; and, therefore, let us continue, but with a more determined
discipleship. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that
God will not overprogram us; he will not press upon us more than we can
bear (D&C 50:40)."
-Neal A. Maxwell, "Meeting the Challenges of Today", Oct. 10, 1978 BYU Devotional
