Hear the Prophet's Voice

“If we follow the counsel given by the prophets, we can have a life in mortality where we do not bring upon ourselves unnecessary pain and self-destruction. This does not mean we will not have challenges. We will. This does not mean we will not be tested. We will, for this is part of our purpose on earth. But if we will listen to the counsel of our prophet, we will become stronger and be able to withstand the tests of mortality. We will have hope and joy. All the words of counsel from the prophets have been given so that we may be strengthened and then be able to lift and strengthen others.” Elder Robert D. Hales, Hear the Prophet's Voice and Obey, April 1995 General Conference https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1995/04/hear-the-prophets-voice-and-obey?lang=eng
