It is our job to see God’s presence in every aspect of our lives and choose the path that most closely aligns with his teachings. When you are drowning in this world he is not going to appear like an apparition before you whisking you away to safety but rather he will ensure there is a path to get you safely to the shore. God knows we are fallible, he knows we are weak, he knows us entirely as he made us. So if we miss his first path he will give us another, but we need to not only believe in him but also in ourselves. It is our job to get ourselves to shore, not his. He is simply the light that guides us and the warmth that dries us. How Heavenly Father requires our faith, not blind followers. It is important to look around, to pay attention not only to what is put I front of us but what is in our peripheral. It is not our place to know the path that God has laid out for us so how do you know to simply walk straight ahead? Just because you are expecting your next step to take one form doesn’t mean you become blind to all the other options around you. How many times have you blamed others around you or God himself for a problem that you could have solved? How about a problem you also caused?...the things we see as a misstep may be the path chosen for us by God, what we blame others for so often could have been avoided by our own actions and where we believe we are stuck is often due to our own blinders. We have the choice in life to create our path towards greatness by abiding in the word of God
