One who gets through life without inspiration cannot avoid making wrong decisions. This is so because such a person must rely upon the wisdom of men - which. . . is very limited. One cannot come to religious knowledge and truth in this manner. On the other hand, one who lives under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, walks through life in harmony with all that has gone before, and in harmony with all that is to come hereafter. His mortal life cannot fail of success. At the end he will be ready for all of the eventualities to come.
