The Billion dollar Bracket of life



The odd of picking there perfect bracket is 1-in-9.2 quintillion (or 9.2 billion times 1 billion times), there are some numbers that never lie. Like a 16 seed has never beaten a 1 seed, but 12 seeds do upset 5 seeds. The thing is though what upsets will have and who will be the team that is hot? There is one other thing in this life that is as hard as picking the perfect bracket and that is picking the perfect life, and perfect path to go in life. Even though it is impossible to pick the "perfect bracket" in our lives we do have some help here in this life, and that is thought a prophet from God.
When every ESPN and most people fill out a bracket they turn to some sports analytics. Most often they just go with the higher seed, and sometimes they are wrong. Now they look at every possible statistics to see what team is best. And there statistics are coming from the world and they have flaws. There is not statistic to show when someone is going to be cold or hot. In our lives it is the same, we never know when we are going to come into a situation and feel hot or cold. That is why we need to get some insights from the best "analysis" on this earth and that is from a prophet of God what will guide us in the best directions to a "perfect bracket" 
In the Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints we have a prophet who has been commissioned of True to the Faith" They explain it perfect when they say, "Like the prophets of Old, Prophets today testify of Jesus Christ and teach His gospel. They make known God's will and true character. They speak boldly and clearly, denouncing sin and warning of its consequences. At times, they maybe inspired to prophesy of future events for out benefits".  Prophets will guide us but it is up to us if we will listen to them or not just like Noah and Moses and all the prophets of old.
God. As it explains in the book "
As I have lived my life I have chosen to follow the Prophet's counsel and not to. And I can tell you that life is better and there is less things in life that bring you down. I know that this is kind of a crazy thing to say, but don't take my word about it. Listen to what Jesus said in John 7:17"If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself."
This week we have the chance to listen to the words of the prophet and the apostles, in our biannual meeting called General Conference (April 5-6 2014). In this link for General Conference   you can  listen to pass one and on April 5-6 you can listen to the present one. Listen to what is taught there and focus on what you feel. See what fruits will come from this and see if it is of God or Satan.
