We stand up inside when we wait patiently upon the Lord to remove or give us strength to endure our thorns in the flesh.¹⁶ Such thorns may be disease, disability, mental illness, death of a loved one, and so many other issues.

We stand up inside when we lift up the hands that hang down. We stand up inside when we defend the truth against a wicked and secular world that is becoming increasingly more uncomfortable with light, calling evil good and good evil¹⁷ and “condemning the righteous because of their righteousness.”¹⁸ – Gary B. Sabin, “Stand Up Inside and Be All In,” Ensign (CR) May 2017
