My Favorite Scripture 1 Nephi 17:50
My favorite scripture is found in the Book of Mormon in the Book of Nephi chapter 17 verse 50. It says:
50 And I said unto them: If God had commanded me to do all things I could do them. If he should command me that I should say unto this water, be thou earth, it should be earth; and if I should say it, it would be done.
This is Nephi talking to his brothers after Nephi told them how he was going to build a ship. His brothers thought he was crazy and this was Nephi's response. I love Nephi. He has so much courage and faith. His response to his brothers has affected me greatly. There is nothing that the Lord has asked that I can't do.
Something interesting that just came to my mind is forgiveness. This is something the Lord has asked me to do, I need to find Nephi's faith inside of me and get over this hurdle that is hurting me. Why is forgiveness so hard?? I need to pray to be like Nephi, because I know these words are true. God has commanded forgiveness so I can do it.
Love,
Becky joy
