“No
member of this Church—and that means each of you—will ever make a
serious mistake without first being warned by the promptings of the Holy
Ghost.
“Sometimes
when you have made a mistake, you may have said afterward, ‘I knew I
should not have done that. It did not feel right,’ or perhaps, ‘I knew I
should have done that. I just did not
have the courage to act!’ Those impressions are the Holy Ghost
attempting to direct you toward good or warning you away from harm” (“How to Survive in Enemy Territory,” New Era, Apr. 2012, 3).
