The Rising Generation

In Elder Bednar's talk "Things As They Really Are", the section about the rising generation really caught my attention.  I have heard many times from people how we are are the "chosen" generation.  How we are more valiant and have to be more obediant than any generation before us,  but this section really made me think about what that really means.  I had to think what does it mean to be more obediant and how can I accomplish that.  It is really scary being known as this generation that is supposed to be stronger and better.  I feel a lot more pressure the more I think about it.  He talks a lot about Satan's temptations in abusing our bodies.  When you look at the youth in society today that is the biggest problem.  Drugs, sex, alcohol, tatoos, and other forms of degrading our bodies is everywhere.  It is getting imposssible to escape from those temptations.  They are so common in our society that it makes ense that we have to be stronger than ever before.  It is not easy, but I know that in the end it will all be worth it.
