Book of Mormon Reading: 3 Nephi 11-13

Two principles stood out to me in my reading today:

First, God speaks to holy prophets today to preach us what we need to know and do now. With many changes that have been made in the past year, we are to follow the directives that have been given us in 2018, not what we have been doing in the past.

Henry B. Eyring taught:
The choice not to take prophetic counsel changes the very ground upon which we stand. It becomes more dangerous. The failure to take prophetic counsel lessens our power to take inspired counsel in the future. The best time to have decided to help Noah build the ark was the first time he asked. Each time he asked after that, each failure to respond would have lessened sensitivity to the Spirit. And so each time his request would have seemed more foolish, until the rain came. And then it was too late.
Second, I'm very grateful God gives me more than just one chance to hear and understand His voice.
