3 Nephi 26:9 talks about trying our faith and believing. It says, "And when they shall have received this, which is expedient that they should have first, to try their faith, and if it shall so be that they shall believe these things then shall the greater things be made manifest unto them." 
So we first need to have our faith tried, then if we believe we will receive more revelation.
Why are there things that happened that can't be written? Are we not ready to hear them in this dispensation? It often says that they weren't able or were commanded not to write certain things in the scriptures but what is the reason? How can I better myself in order to someday understand the things that God is saving for us to know later on? 
3 Nephi 26:18 it says, " And many of them saw and heard unspeakable things, which are not lawful to be written." 
"...they did do all things even as Jesus had commanded them." Wow! I need to be more obedient. It makes me wonder what kind of blessings they receive because they were obedient? What kind of blessings could I receive if I were more obedient? 
What does it mean to take upon us the name of Christ? (3 Nephi 27:5) To me, it means doing only the kind of things that Christ would do. To be His disciple and an example to those around you. I think sometimes it is even harder to be that example when you live around those who know and who are members of the church because not everyone has the same standards that you do. 
We can enter into God's kingdom only by our faith, by repenting of all of our sins, and being faithful until the end. (3 Nephi 27:19)
3 Nephi 27:27 Christ invites us all to be like Him. 
We need to be constant and unchanging. Follow the path that is straight and narrow that leads us back to eternal life. 

Blessing: I got into all my classes I need for my last semester.
