"But it came to pass, as soon as they had departed into the wilderness Moroni sent spies into the wilderness to watch their camp; and Moroni, also, knowing of the prophecies of Alma, sent certain men unto him, desiring him that he should inquire of the Lord whither the armies of the Nephites should go to defend themselves against the Lamanites."
Alma 43:23
I like Moroni's spunk. :) Sometimes we're going throughout life and trying to figure things out using only our brains... and (even if you are super-brilliant Mensa material) that just isn't good enough. Moroni did use his brain... and spies, and other techniques, but it is interesting and cool that he valued going to the Lord. ...and hopefully we won't have to find out which way an army went in the near future, but I am betting that this applies to other things that we have to deal with every day as well. God knows it all, and he is there to help us, as we learn to listen to him, and rely on his judgement before our own.... and actually, to make them the same thing. :) Wouldn't it be cool if we learned to be as good at decisions as God is?
