(1/28/05)
"It is important that we remember also that no matter how intelligent we may be, no matter how hard we work, no matter how good our teachers are or how favorable the other conditions for learning, in our allotted span of years on earth we can master only a very small fraction of the total field of knowledge; and what we do master usually is in a narrowed-down, specialized area. Consequently, we, in and of ourselves, have limitations. Our thinking is often highly selective and segmented and our judgment is often faulty. Should we not, then, be willing to heed the counsel given by Solomon:

"'Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

"'In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.' (Prov. 3:5-6.)" - William H. Bennett, "Help Needed in the Shaded Areas," Ensign, June 1971, p. 107
