Discussion question for November 30, 2012.  No meeting on the 23rd.

How can you know how things really ought to be?  In other words, our expectations are set by something, so how can we be certain that our expectations are what God wants?  How do I trust the Lord, and make decisions according to His will?  What criteria should I use when I make plans?  What traps and pitfalls should I be aware of to ward off mistakes?
