How Can I Have Faith When The World Seems So Scary?
Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin - Friend January 2007
* Always have faith, first of all, in our Heavenly Father and in His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ.
* Just move forward regardless of the world. As you read the scriptures, you will know what you should do.
*In every age we are faced with a choice. We can trust in our own strength, or we can journey to higher ground and come unto Christ.
* Keep busy in doing the right things. Peace and hope come from knowing the Lord and our Heavenly Father and following Their way of living.
*Sometimes the world appears dark. Sometimes our faith is tried. Yet we should not despair. We should never abandon our faith. We should not lose hope.
* Be of good cheer. Have faith and confidence. The Lord will not forsake you.
