Years ago, Elder S. Dilworth Young of the Seventy taught me a lesson about reading the scriptures. A stake was struggling with tensions and difficulties among the members, and counsel needed to be given. I asked President Young, “What should I say?” He answered simply, “Tell them to read the scriptures.” I asked, “Which scriptures?” He said, “It really doesn’t matter. Tell them to open up the Book of Mormon , for instance, and begin to read. Soon the feeling of peace and inspiration will come, and a solution will present itself.” President Boyd K. Packer, October 2013 General Conference http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2013/10/the-key-to-spiritual-protection?lang=eng
