"President James E. Faust reminded us, 'It's not so much what happens to us but how we deal with what happens to us.' (James E. Faust, "Where Do I Make My Stand?" Ensign, November 2004, 20) Recognizing our personal responsibility and exercising self-control make repentance possible and strengthen our character.  Each day tests how we will react to unexpected circumstances, for the same set of circumstances can bring either resentment or gratitude."
