Who will win?

 With all that is going on and statements made, when even our own judgments seem to fail, who will win?  We know who will win - Christ and His kingdom.  We do not know the path that leads to the win, the twists and turns meant to ferret out all of the secret combinations and those whose hearts are not turned to the Lord, but we do know that in the end there will be a complete win.  The evil will be completely destroyed and the right will be victorious.  And it will be astonishing to BOTH the righteous and the wicked.

So when comments are made that make us, "Say what?!"  Don't let it get under our skin.  If people surprise us, if things challenge your faith, fall back to the Book of Mormon and prayer.  Use your shield of faith when you don't always understand everything.

But keep your shield and weapons in good shape for the battle, by obeying the commandments, being kind, serving, prayer, forgiving and asking for forgiveness, and studying the words of the prophets.  If you need reinforcements, look to your family.  We, with the help of our ancestors and the Savior, we'll get through this together.  Don't be overly alarmed, but don't be complacent either.

Regarding our country and the saving of the Constitution, perhaps it will not be saved by some assault on evil, but just by our individual faith and righteousness when no one else seems to see.  Pres. Benson himself said it will not be saved in Washington.
