1 Nephi 1

So… I just found out that Nephi came back and wrote this after he had been to America. I had always thought he went home at night and wrote new scripture, but apparently he is looking back on his life and just giving the super important things. Having said that… Its amazing how he choose to start the book, “Having been born of goodly parents…” You can see the effect they had on his life. If you are wondering what heaven Is like we kinda get a vision of it through Lehi’s vision. God Setting on his throne surrounded by angels. In verse 14 we hear the testimony of an actual person who saw God. His words are Rich but it is almost like he wishes there were more words that could describe his new found testimony of God. In verse 18 once Lehi knew of the destruction that would happen to the people he went out and started to worn the people. I would like to say I have felt the same desire Lehi felt to worn. I remember on my mission I had a new knowledge of what would happen to the people if they did not repent. It motivated me and gave me strength I didn’t know I had. Verse 20…. AMAZING! Love ya all… First day back to school today and I get a new district of 10 missionaries, so big day but feeling pumped from this scripture study. Have a good one.
