Hold Tight

“From Lehi’s vision we learn that we must take hold of this safety railing—this iron rod, found alongside our individual straight and narrow path—and hold tight until we reach our ultimate goal of eternal life with our Heavenly Father. Nephi promises that those who hold fast to the iron rod ‘would never perish; neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to lead them away to destruction’ (1 Nephi 15:24).

“I invite you to read again the full accounts of this inspired vision. Study them, ponder them, and apply them to your daily life. In modern terms we might say we are invited to ‘get a grip.’ We must hold on tight to the iron rod and never let go.”
