Look Forward to Your Future

You must learn to “trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding” (Proverbs 3:5). You must be trustworthy and surround yourself with friends that desire to be likewise.
Sometimes you might be tempted to think as I did from time to time in my youth: “The way things are going, the world’s going to be over with. The end of the world is going to come before I get to where I should be.” Not so! You can look forward to doing it right—getting married, having a family, seeing your children and grandchildren, maybe even great-grandchildren.
If you will follow these principles, you will be watched over and protected and you yourself will know by the promptings of the Holy Ghost which way to go, for “by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things” (Moroni 10:5). I promise you that it will be so.

-Boyd K. Packer
