D& C 26 And in that day shall be heard of wars and rumors of wars, and the whole earth shall be in commotion, and men’s hearts shall fail them, and they shall say that Christ delayeth his coming until the end of the earth.
Neil A Maxwell talk: In these, your days, “the love of many shall wax cold,” resulting in various and serious social consequences (Matt. 24:12). Widespread despair caused by iniquity is prophesied too (see Moro. 10:22).
Various forms of help are near at hand, including the Church’s stakes that are to be “for a defense, and for a refuge from the storm”—a real blessing! (D&C 115:6). Furthermore, in the last days, you will hear “of wars and rumors of wars, and the whole earth shall be in commotion, and men’s hearts shall fail them” (D&C 45:26; see also D&C 88:92).
Such failing hearts suggest not cardiac arrests but a loss of will and hope. But again, such symptoms need not characterize you nor your responses to life. You will see such things, of course, but if managed in a framework of faith, these need not “weigh [you] down.”
Even the prophesied global commotion will include a dimension of redemptive turbulence—for “the kingdom of the devil must shake” in order that some therein will be “stirred up unto repentance” (2 Ne. 28:19). The Lord has His own unique way of getting good things out of bad situations, again and again.
