No one ever climbs downhill—meaning, if life feels tough, you’re moving in the right direction. Chad Hymes reminds us that growth doesn’t just happen—we have to pursue it.

You’re climbing, and you’re not alone.

Maybe it’s a stranger whose day could be changed by a small act of kindness. Take the challenge today—ask the Savior to open your eyes to someone you can help. A simple act of love can be life-changing.
