Very sad, but true it is, that people tend to put the Lord
on the back burner until we need Him.
When we’re satisfied and all is going to suit us, we sometimes have to
make a conscious effort to remember the Lord, from whom all our blessings
come. Yet when we suffer afflictions, such
as death or terror, or famine or pestilence, we’re more quick to call on His
name (see verse 3). Well did Helaman
call us foolish and vain for this (verse 4).
Everything else on the Earth, even down to the very dust, hearkens to
the Lord readily, Helaman tells us. It
is man, with all his freedom, that goes his own way and doesn't give the Lord
His due. Why do we require such drastic
measures as a society before we rally together to call on the Lord?
