Seeing the world correctly

Many groups of people in the world see the exact same thing happen and have various ideas about whether it was good or bad, neutral, positive, or negative. What's important is to see things the right way, the way God sees them.

The Book of Mormon gives us a hint about how to see things in life the right way. Here's a verse in 1 Nephi 15 that explains the anchor to guide our decisions:

24 And I said unto them that it was the word of God; and whoso would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it, they would never perish; neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to lead them away to destruction.

The word of God can guide our thinking and help us realize the right way to think and how to have the right perspective on many things. Most importantly, it will keep us from becoming blind due to the temptations and harmful intensity created by the adversary.

Have a great day.

Enjoy the scriptures.
