“Thus the People Did Have No Disturbance”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

Whenever a people live the gospel, whenever they live in harmony with the statutes and ordinances God has given them, whenever they follow the light of their consciences and subscribe to the rules and standards established for those of the household of faith, they come to know the peace of the Spirit. Keeping the commandments brings the quiet assurance that one’s course in life is pleasing in the sight of God, a consciousness of victory over self which we know as spirituality. “Learn of me, and listen to my words; walk in the meekness of my Spirit, and you shall have peace in me” (D&C 19:23).
