Quote on Prayer

"When Heavenly Father answers yes, it is
to give us confidence. When he answers
no, it is to prevent error. When he
withholds an answer, it is to have us grow
through faith in Him... We are expected to
assume accountability by acting on a
decision that is consistent with His
teachings without prior confirmation. We
are not to sit passively waiting or to
murmur because the Lords has not spoken.
We are to act. Most often what we have
chosen to do is right. He will confirm the
corrections of our choices His way. That
confirmation generally comes through
packets of help found along the way. We
discover them by being spiritually
sensitive... If, in trust, we begin something
which is not right, He will let us know
before we have gone too far"

~Elder Richard G Scott~
