When I was reading in the scriptures this morning I read a scripture in 3 Nephi 13:8 which made me reflect on how little we know and understand. As I pray I will often ask for things that I want without realizing what it is that I need. Heavenly Father knows what we need before we even ask Him. He knows what we need more than we do. We know what we want, not necessarily what we need, therefore we need to trust Him. That is why we should always add "Thy will be done" to our prayers. He knows us better than we know ourselves. It would be a good thing to always remember that, and to accept all the things that He allows us to go through, whether good or difficult. Whatever we go through, our question needs to be: "What can or what do I need to learn from this?"
Psalms 3:5-6 says: "Trust in the Lord in with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." We need to trust the Lord.
Whenever I feel like losing the way to go, I always try to pray and ask the Lord about his plan for me. If we keep following his plan by praying and reading scripture, we will be in the right way all the time. :) !!!
