"The road to exaltation and life with our Heavenly Father is strewn with hazards of various kinds. There are tribulations- some brief and others prolonged. Temptations lie in wait at curves, forks, and intersections. Whether or not we succumb to temptation and stray from our course is determined by how firmly we are committed to reaching our goal."
