Day 2- 1 Nephi 4

Here is the start of Day 4. I don't know if I will have much time tonight, so I want to get ahead.
What is happening?
  1.  Nephi goes to get the plates. He kills Laben (who is passed out drunk) and dresses in his clothes.
  2.  Zoram and Nephi retrieve the plates and return to Nephi's brothers. Zoram makes an oath to join their family in the wilderness.
  3. They begin their journey back into the wilderness.
How does this apply to my life?
  1.  The Lord will provide a way for everything, I just have to listen to His promptings.
  2. What would I do in Zoram's case? Would I have run or join them?
  3. I need to trust in the Lord. He knows best.
Favorite Verse? Why?
Vs. 6 "And I was led by the Spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which I should do."
I really love this scripture because I have felt this in my own life. With my job as a peer mentor, I sometimes feel like I don't know what I am going to say to these students. In my meetings with them I try and say a little prayer so that I know what to ask them that they need to talk about. In many cases, I have truly felt the Spirit leading me to the things which I should say.
