“No one of us is immune from the influences of the world. The Lord’s counsel keeps us on guard.
“As we follow the Savior, without question there will be challenges that confront us. Approached with faith, these refining experiences bring a deeper conversion of the Savior’s reality. Approached in a worldly way, these same experiences cloud our view and weaken our resolve. Some we love and admire slip from the strait and narrow path and ‘[walk] no more with him’ [John 6:66]
“Will we be astonished at times to see the anger a few feel toward the Lord’s Church and their efforts to steal the struggling faith of the weak? Yes. But this will not deter the growth or destiny of the Church, nor need it impede the spiritual progress of each of us as disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ” (“Never Leave Him,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2010, Elder Neil L. Andersen)
