Accepting the Will and Timing of the Lord

I'm speaking in church next Sunday. Does anyone have any favorite talks or insights about this subject?

Beautiful!

I'm speaking in church in two weeks. While studying my topic, I came across this BYU Devotional address from 2012. The speaker's personal experiences are beautiful and touched my heart:

Civic Standards for the Faithful Saints

So a while back I saw a meme on Facebook that was attributed to President Benson, quoting him as having said:

If you vote for the lesser of two evils you are still voting for evil and you will be judged for it. You should always vote for the best possible candidate, whether they have a chance of winning or not, and then, even if the worst possible candidate wins, the Lord will bless our country more because more people were willing to stand up for what is right.

This quote seems to lend support to voting for a third-party candidate, but I've looked around a little, and I can't find the original source. (One website attributed to a personal conversation, which casts doubt on its credibility and means it can't be universally applied.) But what I did find was this: https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1972/04/civic-standards-for-the-faithful-saints?lang=eng&_r=1.

I bring this up because I haven't figured out yet what to do about the upcoming elections and I've been fretting over it. The way I see it, the options are:

• Don't vote. There aren't any good options, and I can't in good conscience support any of them. But I know we're supposed to be involved in civic-ly, so this doesn't feel right.
• Vote for Donald Trump. Ug. The only argument I can give in favor of Trump is that he's likely to nominate conservative justices to the Supreme Court. This is a big deal. But I really can't respect him--on so many levels--and I don't want to vote for someone I don't respect.
• Vote third party. Like, Evan McMullin. I think he's idealistic and not a serious contender, but I can at least respect his values. But this feels like a wasted vote, and like I'm practically voting for Clinton and a bunch of liberal Supreme Court justices.
• Hillary Clinton isn't even an option. I actually think I like her better--as a person--that Donald Trump, but I so totally disagree with her platform that I can't even consider voting for her.

So yeah, I'm in a pickle. If anyone has any insights they would like to share, I am all ears.
