“It is normal and natural when things go wrong to begin to search for causes, to begin to look carefully at one’s attitudes and behaviors to ascertain whether one has offended God. If a person is sincere in his searchings, if he asks God to reveal his weakness, … the Lord can awaken him to a remembrance of his duty. … That is, the Spirit of Jesus Christ can bring to remembrance commitments, covenants, and divine counsel, thereby placing in vivid relief the ideal and the real in our lives” (McConkie and Millet, Doctrinal Commentary, 3:18–19).
