Fear not, only believe.

"With a soul as bold as lions
And a strength to face the giants
Come and join us in the silence
For the King who saved the world...
Stand strong
Keep holding on
Blessed are the persecuted
Blessed are the weak and wounded
This is your song
Stand, stand strong"
("Stand strong" - Moriah Peters)

“Stand upright, speak thy thoughts, declare The truth thou hast, that all may share; Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare.” ~ Voltaire

"We must believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost. We must believe in the Atonement and the Resurrection of the Savior. We must believe in the words of the prophets, both ancient and modern. We should also believe in ourselves."

*Believing requires action

*Action is inhibited by fear.

*"Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them." 2 Kings 6:16



"If we believe and are faithful, we are promised all that the Father has. If we receive all that the Father has, there is nothing more for us to receive in this life or the life to come. We should remember that in our challenges and struggles against the powers of evil and darkness, “they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” We belong to the greatest cause on earth. We are the pioneers of the future. Let us go forth like the armies of Helaman and build the kingdom of God. Like the royal army, let us be “united, bold, and strong, … marching forth to conquer on life’s great battlefield.” All of these hopes, blessings, and opportunities will come to us if we will only believe and be not afraid. Of this I testify in the name of Jesus Christ, amen."
