What is happening?
- Lehi takes his family into the wilderness to escape Jeruselum being destroyed and the people seeking to take away his life.
- Lamen and Lemuel are murmuring
- Lehi dwelt in a tent.
- Nephi is told that he can be a ruler of his older brothers if he just keeps the commandments lke he has been doing.
- What am I willing to give up for the Lord?
- Am I am Lamen and Lemuel or a Nephi and Sam?
- What is the Lord commanding me to do right now?
Vs. 20 "And inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall prosper and shall be led to the land of promise; yea even a land which I have prepared for you; yea, a land which is choice above all other lands"
No, I am not journeying in the wilderness, but I still think that this applicable to me. Why? Because I feel that as I keep God's commandments I shall prosper. I might not be led to a new land exactly, but I will be led on the pathway that my Heavenly Father wants me to go on. This can be in this lifetime where I physically be where I need to be or in the next life in the Celestrial Kingdom. I believe that Heavenly Father has prepared a mansion for me right next to his. It is the land that He has prepared for me. I just hope that I live worthy enough to recieve it someday.
