Week 2

1Nephi 16 to 2 Nephi 7
Pages 35 to 70

There is so much valuable information in this section that we have read this past week.  I  am focusing on one to write about. In 2 Nephi 4, the prophet writes about his own shortcomings and weaknesses.  I love how Nephi writes, "I am encompassed about, because of the temptations and the sins which do so easily beset me.  And when I desire to rejoice, my heart groaneth because of my sins, nevertheless, I know in whom I have trusted.  My God hath been my support; he hath led me through my afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep. 2 Nephi 4: 18-20 (emphasis added)

So,  it is for me.  Despite my sins and follies, I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me, confused at the grace that so fully He proffers me.
