We are invited to "feast upon the words of Christ" and then promised that "the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do." (2 Nephi 32:3)

If we don't do our part of Studying the word of God and seeking them to find ways we can change and be more like our Lord and Savior then like it says in vs 4, "ye are not brought into the light, but must perish in the dark."

 We have  been invited time and time again to study and learn of the words of our God through the words of our Prophets both of old and today through the Ensign, and General Conference talks. Do we do that or are we just waiting for someone to tell us the answers to our prayers?

Nephi says, "I have great faith in Christ" (2 Nephi 33:7)
What would it take to have great faith? Sometimes I have more faith than other times but what would it take to have GREAT faith?

I think he put more effort into recognizing answers to prayers as well as knowing what the Lords will is for himself and those around him.

"I must obey."

Life is so much easier if we will obey the commandments and obey our Father in all things. It get hard when we are not doing what He has asked. So go and look into your life and make some changes, they may be small they may be big but change.

Blessing: We have God's words with us today to learn from, as well as a perfect example to follow "Christ".

Heber J. Grant said "I have heard men and women say that they were going to let their sons and daughters grow to maturity before they sought to teach them the principles of the gospel, that they were not going to cram the gospel down them in their childhood, before they were able to comprehend it. When I hear men and women say this, I think they are lacking faith in the principles of the gospel and do not comprehend it as they should. The Lord has said it is our duty to teach our children in their youth, and I prefer to take His word for it rather than the words of those who are not obeying His commandments.. I may know that the gospel is true, and so may my wife; but I want to tell you that your children will not know that the gospel is true, unless they study it and gain a testimony for themselves. Parents are deceiving themselves in imagining that their children will be born with a knowledge of the gospel." (Richard O. Cowan, The Church in the Twentieth Century, p. 319)*...

Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We all do a lot of studying, but most of us don't do much meditation. We don't take time to think. I'd like to suggest that next fast day . . . everybody in this hall set aside an hour or two. Sit by yourself. Go in the bedroom and lock the door. Go out in the yard under a tree. Go in your study if you have one and shut the door, and think about yourself and your worthiness. Read from this great book [Book of Mormon]...There's a great word that's used, 'ponder.' "'Ponder.' What do we mean by 'ponder'? Well, I think it simply means kind of quietly thinking things through. Ponder what you have read. Ponder your life. Are you worthy, are you living the commandments...?" (Church News, 01/06/96) -Christ commanded them to; 1. " ponder upon the things which I have said, 2. ask the Father, in my name, that ye many understand, 3. prepare your minds for the morrow ," (3 Nephi 17:3) -The thing...
