"And whatsoever thing persuadeth men to do good is of me; for good cometh of none save it be of me. I am the same that leadeth men to all good;" (Ether 4:12)
Such a simple, succinct way to determine whether we are being led by God or by our own thoughts. I think the point here is simply that when we are being led to do something good, whether by our own minds or specifically by God, does it really matter? I mean, we'll have to decide if the thing we're being led to do would actually be a good thing, but really, this is the only real determination we need to make.
I appreciate that kind of direction and help to determine what I should be doing. I just hope that I can stay on the side of the right, and always do things that persuade me to do good.
