1 Nephi 7:12-13

1 Nephi 7:12-13

12 Yea, and how is it that ye have forgotten that the Lord is able to do all things according to his will, for the children of men, if it so be that they exercise faith in him? Wherefore, let us be faithful to him.

13 And if it so be that we are faithful to him, we shall obtain the land of promise; and ye shall know at some future period that the word of the Lord shall be fulfilled concerning the destruction of Jerusalem; for all things which the Lord hath spoken concerning the destruction of Jerusalem must be fulfilled.

This is a reminder to me of why faith is so important and why, even though it’s hard, having faith is so important.  It’s a reminder that there’s something worth struggling for.
