For Such a Time as This

President Thomas S. Monson

My dear young sisters, although there have always been challenges in the world, many of those which you face are unique to this time. But you are some of our Heavenly Father's strongest children, and He has saved you to come to the earth "for such a time as this" [Esther 4:14]. With His help, you will have the courage to face whatever comes. Though the world may at times appear dark, you have the light of the gospel, which will be as a beacon to guide your way.

President Thomas S. Monson, "May You Have Courage," Ensign, May 2009, 127.
