Don't be afraid to ask questions.
Ask questions; don't make assumptions.
A burning itch to know is higher than a solemn vow to pursue truth. To feel the burning itch of curiosity requires both that you be ignorant, and that you desire to relinquish your ignorance.
Your Heavenly Father will help you find the right path as you seek His guidance. Remember though, after you pray you must get off your knees and start doing something positive; head in the right direction! He will send people along the way who will assist you, but you must be doing your part as well.
I can tell you, honest friend, what to believe: believe life; it teaches better that book or orator.
Take the attitude of a student, never be too big to ask questions, never know too much to learn something new.
Don't just read the easy stuff. You may be entertained by it, but you will never grow from it.
I cannot help thinking that the best way of knowing God is to love many things. Love this friend, this person, this thing, whatever you like, and you will be on the right road to understanding Him better.
