You can get through the hardships of life by the strength you hold inside you, meaning courage and determination, love. If you ask me the quote is pretty self explanatory.

This sentence sums up the major thematic claim of Bless Me, Ultima—through all of life’s injustices and hardships, the power of the human heart prevails. Antonio has this realization in Chapter 22, when he realizes what Ultima has been trying to teach him all along. Antonio can experience the suffering of his friends and family and the string of tragic deaths that he witnesses, and still persevere and thrive. This quotation also resolves the tension between innocence and experience that arises from the moment that MarÃa first claims that it is a sin to grow up. Innocence is fleeting, but the “magical strength” of the heart is not. This “magical strength,” and not innocence, is the ultimate source of human goodness and hope.

HearKat is right. Anyway, if you don't understand the meaning of this quote, then the situation is tragic. I hope that you'll find enough magical strength in your heart to overcome this tragedy of yours...

One might take it to mean this:
The heart can overcome all. Probably in the sense that love is the most powerful weapon in any of the world's great arsenals. If everyone loved each other there would be no consequences as the result of conflicts.

you can overcome the consequences (from what you did) by the magical strength from your heart. ( believe in yourself, meditation will overcome sadness)

It means with a strong heart, you can over come anything
or it could be interpreted as anything can be over come by the human heart...pretty much the same thing!!

It means that you can overcome anything. No matter how rough things get, you are strong enough to prevail over hurt.

We do not get tests that we cannot pass. We all have the strength to endure things that life presents to us.
