Thinker, dreamer, trying-to-figure-out life-er. I frequently attempt to paint a pink and sparkly picture on gloomy doomy blahs. I firmly believe that Life is Good. Even the unwelcome derailments offer blessings in disguise.

1 Nephi 11

Vs6. The Angel was quite happy that N was so faithful.
Vs7. N earned his "sign" - he didn't ask for it.
Vs11. Clearly identifies what an angel looks like....and the Spirit of recognition that comes with it.
Vs21. K- I found it interesting how the Angel chose to show the correlation between the dream and the interpretation thereof. We get the story of Christ's birth and his condescension to illustrate the love of God. & N knew it right away.
Vs25. So we have the New Testamant story of Christ that defines Lehi's dream.
Vs35. The wickedness of the Spacious Building. Hugely due to peer pressure - and that apparently is one of the reasons why Christ was crucified. So men could keep their positions of power over other men. Pride.
Vs36. God won't tolerate pride... looks like that's another reason why I shouldn't be holding a greudge - 'cause it's all really due to pride.
