“As Much as Ye Shall Put Your Trust in God Even So Much Ye Shall Be Delivered Out of Your Trials”

George Reynolds, Janne M. Sjodahl

As He had in the past, so in the future, God will deliver you out of your trials if you put your trust in Him. Just as in the exact ratio of the fear of Him that animates your being, just so will be the help and strength you will receive at His hands. "Ye that fear the Lord, trust in Him," is an old Jewish proverb, "He will not forsake you, nor leave you in your grief." This thought Alma impressed upon the youthful mind of Shiblon, and promised that whatsoever might come upon him the Spirit and power of God would deliver him and lead him "out of your trials, and your troubles, and your afflictions, and ye shall be lifted up at the Last Day."
