Elder Ezra Taft Benson said that two principles are essential
for security and peace: “First, trust in God; and second, a determination to
keep the commandments, to serve the Lord, to do that which is right. … The Lord
has made it very clear in the revelations that even though times become
perilous, even though we be surrounded by temptation and sin, even though there
be a feeling of insecurity, even though men’s hearts may fail them and anxiety
fill their souls, if we only trust in God and keep his commandments we need
have no fear” (in Conference Report, Oct. 1950, 146).
