It sucks that right after Nephi had these awesome experiences with the angel, he goes back to the dwelling of his father to find his dumb brothers fighting! Over and over it happens! How frustrating!! And of course, Nephi already knows what's going to happen with his brothers and his people, but he takes the time to teach them and explain to them, in very simple terms, what Lehi saw and had told them. And how great Nephi must have felt to see that he had an affect on his brothers.. to see them, even temporarily humble themselves and try to live righteously.
29: ".. And thus we see that by small means the Lord can bring about great things." I love that! It is hard to remember the little things, and to notice how they help in your life when you are actually doing them. I already feel better by just reading two chapters a day with you and having some time to think about what I've read and what I can do to apply it to my life. (I know I am late in posting though). I didn't read yesterday, shame on me, but I felt it! I could tell! Thanks for helping me remember to do the easy stuff! It's so obviously important!!
