Assurance, Calm, and Peace

Our Heavenly Father is continually mindful of us. It is his “work and glory” to make the exaltation of man possible. The course which he has outlined is simple, yet able to make men’s stature reflect confident living free from fear. Hear his words:

Let him trust in me and he shall not be confounded (D&C 84:116).

So, my brethren and sisters, there may come persecution; there may come opposition; there may come reverses; there may come criticism and misrepresentation. Your motives may be questioned. You may be attacked. But if we place our trust in the Almighty and do that which is right, there will come an inner assurance, an inner calm, a peace that will bring joy and happiness to our souls. – Ezra Taft Benson, “Trust in God and Do the Right”, April 1954 General Conference
