Today there are many frustrated, confused, and discouraged people in the world. To do justly, we are challenged to give them courage, hope, and strength; praise them and help them to understand that God loves them and has provided a way for them to be happy and successful; share with them the things we are blessed with in order to make their loads lighter.

Too often fear rules over the lives of many people, depriving them of blessings. Fear must be overcome, for the Lord has said: “. . . if ye are prepared ye shall not fear.” (D&C 38:30) – Franklin D. Richards, “Justice, Mercy, and Humility,” Ensign (CR) May 1970
