How to know what to do..

In 2Nephi 32, Nephi says, "..I suppose that ye ponder somewhat in your hearts concerning that which ye should do after ye have entered in by the way". Later in the chapter he tells us that the words of Christ will tell us what to do. He says that after we have received these words, if we cannot understand them, it is because we haven't asked or "knocked". He promises that if we enter in the way and receive the Holy Ghost, "it will show unto you all things what ye should do." This is a really wonderful promise because the world is such a confusing place where right is called wrong and wrong is called right. It is so hard to know what we should do if we just rely on our own knowledge and experience. It's almost as if we are blindfolded and are just trying to feel our way around in our lives. It is such a blessing to have the promise of the Holy Ghost to help us know what we should do if we just ask for that help. I know for myself that the Holy Ghost not only helps us in church and family matters, but he also will tell us what to do at work and in other situations. I had a very difficult meeting at work this week. I spent hours trying to think of ways to help one of my students. I talked to several people and still didn't have a good solution as I went into the meeting. I had prayed ahead of time to have guidance. As the parent and then the teacher began to talk about the problem this student was having, it was like a light went on in my head and the ideas just came flowing into my mind. We were able to use those ideas to make a really great plan for this student and I know that it was the Holy Ghost who gave me those thoughts. I hope that I can always be worthy of this guidance in my life.
