“When problems come and questions arise, do not start your
quest for faith by saying how much you do not have, leading as it were with
your ‘unbelief.’ That is like trying to stuff a turkey through the beak! Let me
be clear on this point: I am not asking you to pretend to faith you do not
have. I am asking you to be true to the faith you do have. Sometimes we act as
if an honest declaration of doubt is a higher manifestation of moral courage
than is an honest declaration of faith. It is not! So let us all remember the
clear message of this scriptural account: Be as candid about your questions as
you need to be; life is full of them on one subject or another. But if you and
your family want to be healed, don’t let those questions stand in the way of
faith working its miracle.” – Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
