Who Is President Gordon B. Hinckley's Autobiography?

In April of 1996, President Gordon B. Hinckley gave a devotional to the youth of the Church entitled, “Stand True and Faithful” During this magnificent talk he spoke about the calamities that are pressing and the currents that are pulling. He goes on to talk about life and how we are meant to traverse. In his simple but profound way he coined this phrase, one that I might add that has been quoted, posted, tweeted, intsagramed and blogged about since he gave this address. He said with words of soberness, ”Life is meant to be enjoyed, not just endured.” Truly a man of wisdom, one who saw things that were ahead of his own time. A prophet of God.

Much like the Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley we at times have this attitude that life is to be enjoyed,
Shaky knees or not, I am grateful and honored that I have this opportunity to share with you what I love most. That is Restored The Gospel of Jesus Christ, and how this has brought me from the edge of life, hanging by a thread. To a man full of hope, joy and love. I cherish life and I don’t think I’ll ever look at it the same again. I’ve seen so many things, and I know that we have a loving Father in Heaven, and a Savior who deeply cares for each of us. They are pulling for our well being and they do want us to succeed. Our Father in Heaven has told us his purpose, it’s stated so clearly in the Pearl of Great Price, you would have to be foolish not to recognize it. In the Book of Moses it states, “For behold, this is my work and my glory--to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” (Moses 1:39) Our Father wants us, each of us to achieve this joy. He has set out the path that is ahead of us. Will we walk the straight and narrow and make it back to him? Brothers and Sisters. The answer to these rhetorical questions is, yes! And here is the example of
It didn’t matter how much or how long, but to at least read a verse. So that’s what I did. Day after day, I read a verse, maybe two. Until I was reading a page, or even a chapter. Then one day it hit me. I had had a change of heart. The spirit was surly working wondering in my life. The Lord was softening a hard hearted man, until I was ready to hear to words in which he was speaking. All of a sudden, as if it happen in an instant, I fell to my knees and prayed for the first time in years. I prayed and truly meant what I had said, I had a desire to change for good. That night I gave my all over to the Lord. And in response, he caused my heart to burn and my mind to be enlightened. I experienced a mighty change of heart. It drove me as ask, seek, and knock. I know how my prayers where answered that night. Because the next day my life changed. The events of what happen could not be any more clear that it was God telling me that he had me. That everything was going to be okay. And from that day forth I haven’t looked back. I fought like a lion to do everything that was needful for me to fulfill my promise I had made with he Lord years prior. He helped me, he sent others to guide me, I wasn't alone in my trails and tribulations. Even when there was no one there physically I still felt his loving embrace and hand in my life. Sometimes with a feeling of love in my heart, or a passage of scripture running through my mind, or on those rare
