"For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things."
2 Nephi 2:11
Should we become discouraged? No. If anything we should stand firm in our faith. It's normal for opposition to arise when we become steady and strong in faith. Where there is good, there is evil. Stand firm in your faith! Alma 1:25 says, "Now this was a great trial to those that did stand fast in the faith; nevertheless, they were steadfast and immovable in keeping the commandments of God, and they bore with patience the persecution which was heaped upon them."
This verse, to me, is very special. It's easy to become discouraged and give up. I live on a campus of students who are various different religions and forms of Christianity. It's tough to have opposing views and to have people talk about you behind your back. You know what you do? Forget their words!! Be kind to them. Show them who you are. Show them who you represent; Heavenly Father.
Don't give up. Stand fast in the faith, be immovable and keep the commandments of God.
Keep reading your scriptures, they contain the truth and all the answers!
