1 Nephi 10:13

13  Wherefore, he said it must needs be that we should be led with one accord into the aland of promise, unto the fulfilling of the word of the Lord, that we should be scattered upon all the face of the earth.
            -because of his knowledge (testimony, understanding, stuffy of scriptures, spiritual tutelage) Lehi was able to gain advanced perception as to their role in the plan.  He could answer the question, “why is this happening to us, why do we have to leave our homes?”  Contrast this with the many times that we find ourselves in the middle of a trial and we have no idea why these difficult experiences are befalling us.  Are there ways to better perceive and hence have a more peaceful heart when challenging situations cause us to ask:  why/what is this happening to me?
