Being able to see clearly has always been an important factor in facing challenges and overcoming opposition. In war time, Generals sent scouts to gather information and see the movements of troops and enemy forces. In ancient times, cities would be surrounded by walls and Watchmen would be placed in towers to see approaching threats. In the great game of American Football, offensive and defensive coordinators sit in booths up above the field to be able to see clearly what is happening and make necessary adjustments.
Without the proper perspective, or being able to see clearly, trials and opposition are much much more difficult to face. Would Generals go into battle without scouting reports? Would a strong city remove its towers and take down the Watchmen? Would we ever empty the press box of team coordinators during the Super Bowl? Of couse not.... that would be ridiculous.
Should we be expected to go though life without spiritual Watchmen to guide and protect us? Of couse not! That would be ridiculous. God loves His children so much that there is no way that He would send us into this world without guidance and protection from Parents and inspired leaders. There are Prophets and Apostles on the earth today that have the authority to teach and lead us.
He has also given us The Gospel of Jesus Christ and knowledge about the plan of Salvation. Below is a video of three people sharing how these things have changed their lives.
