With the challenge of COVID 19 in the world has come some feelings of fear and anxiety among many. For me, though, it wasn't so much a fear of the present; it caused me to wonder about the future and to fear the future. sD&C 88:91 says concerning the last days, "And all things shall be in commotion; and surely, men's hearts shall fail them, for fear shall come upon all people."
We often wonder, "What will the last days be like?" It could get a little crazy. We've definitely seen a glimpse of crazy in the past few weeks! But why be afraid? I recognized that I needed to clear my heart and mind of fear of the future and turn it into excitement for the future! Jesus does not want us to panic and be afraid! He said, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." (John 14:27) After re-reading this scripture, I realized, that no matter what happens in the world, it will be okay as long as I have the three F's and of course T.P... Faith, Family, Food, and Toilet Paper!
