How can you liken this situation experienced by the brother of Jared to yourself?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Like the brother of Jared, each of us faces challenges in life. At times we may plead with the Lord: ‘Will ye have me go through this life without light to understand why things are the way they are?’ His answer to us might be the same question He asked the brother of Jared: ‘What would ye that I should do to put light into your spiritual vessels?’” (Garrett, “Light in Our Vessels,” 81).

Why do you think the Lord often insists that we figure things out on our own?
