1 Nephi:1-2


18 But, behold, Laman and Lemuel would not hearken unto my words; and being agrieved because of the hardness of their hearts I cried unto the Lord for them.

This verse really stuck out to me. I feel like there are a lot of times that in life and especially in this world where you see people or family doing things that are not inline with the gospel. And like Nephi the only thing we can do is pray for them. My natural instinct is to grab them and shake them till the just do what is right but really everyone has their own free agency and sometimes all we can do is pray for those and hope that they will find their way back. I think Nephi is a great example of just having amazing faith. I love how he never gives up on his brothers and is always praying for them. I have a great testimony of prayer and know that it really does work.
