Lesson 6
Elder W. Don Ladd taught: "When it starts raining, it is too late to begin building the ark. ... We ... need to listen to the Lord's spokesmen. We need to calmly continue to move ahead and prepare for what will surely come. We need not panic or fear, for if we are prepared, spiritually and temporally, we and our families will survive any flood. Our arks will float on a sea of faith if our works have been steadily and surely preparing for the future" (in Conference Report, Oct. 1994, 37; or Ensign, Nov. 1994, 29).
