“King Benjamin told his people in the Book of Mormon, ‘I
cannot tell you all the things whereby ye may commit sin; for there are diverse
ways and means, even so many that I cannot number them.’ King Benjamin went on
to say, ‘But this much I can tell you, … watch yourselves, and your thoughts,
and your words, and your deeds, and observe the commandments of God, and
continue in the faith of … our Lord, even unto the end of your lives.’ Is it
wrong to have rules? Of course not. We all need them every day. But it is wrong
to focus only on rules instead of focusing on the Savior. You need to know the
whys and the hows and then consider the consequences of your choices. You need
to put your trust in Jesus Christ. He will lead you the right way. He is your
strength.” - Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf
