OH MY. everything is happening so speedily. i never really saw the grasp the adversary had until now. maybe i was blinded to it because i wished it would magically resolve itself. i am seriously nervous now. this is beyond me, beyond my family, beyond this nation. this is a world event. one of our modern Korihors has presented itself and all i can do is have faith. God's plan will present itself and the valient will be protected. faith and fear cannot coexist, so i'll go with faith.

"We live in a time foretold in the scriptures as a day of 'wars, rumors of wars, and earthquakes in divers places' (Mormon 8:30), when 'the whole earth shall be in commotion, and men's hearts shall fail them' (D&C 45:26). But how does this affect us as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints? Are we living with apprehension, fear, and worry? Or have we, amidst all of our challenges, not reason to rejoice? We all go through different life experiences. Some are filled with joy, and others with sorrow and uncertainty. . . Aren't the restored gospel of Jesus Christ and our membership in His Church great reasons to rejoice?"
- Dieter F. Uchtdorf
