Elder Bruce R. McConkie noted in the October 1981 Conference of the Church: " We know what the future holds and of the wars and plagues and desolations that will soon sweep the earth as a devouring fire.
This is a day in which mad men in high places can, in an instant, suddenly, unleash such fearful weapons that millions can be slain between the rising and the setting of the sun."
This talk was given 31 years ago, the counsel of the Lord to prepare becomes even more meaningful. We need to buy 1 or 2 extra cans of food when we go shopping each time so we can prepare for what is ahead in our lives. Calmness and wisdom will accompany all our preparations as done under the influence of the spirit.
