2 Nephi 19


I’m finally understanding how to apply Isaiah to me. I was the nations in darkness, who was brought into the light and filled with joy. It was my oppressor who is gone. And praise be to Him forever more because of it!
When it talks about how the Lord will have no mercy on the fatherless and widows that are wicked, that always seemed harsh, but I see the justice of it. I guess I didn’t really understand what it was talking about before. But the Lord is no respecter of persons. And you are responsible for the choices you make  no matter the difficulty of your circumstances. If you choose evil, you cannot be rewarded for choosing good. That is the law of the harvest again.

I’ve also been noticing how prideful the tribe of Ephriam is in all of this. That’s me, that’s my family. We need to be wary and careful to be on the Lord’s side.
