1 Nephi 3





The Lord knows us individually.  Verses 28 – 30 give an example of this truth.  Angry with their younger (and faithful) brothers, Laman and Lemuel sought to establish their authority over Nephi and Sam by beating them with a rod.  As they did so, an angel appeared to stop the abuse.  The Lord had His eye on Nephi and Sam and intervened on their behalf.  That was around 600 B.C.  He has His eye on us today, as well, but the angels he sends to help us are usually other people.   May we follow the Savior’s teachings and example to such a degree that He can send us to be the answer to the prayers of someone who needs His intervention.
