Book of Mormon Haiku - 1st Nephi 17

The way is simple
 
Behold the serpent of brass
 
Look to God and live

1 Nephi 17 - Nephi is commanded to build a ship; His brethren oppose him; He exhorts them by recounting the history of God's dealings with Israel; He is filled with the power of God; His brethren are forbidden to touch him, lest they wither as a dried reed.

Moses divided the waters of the Red Sea; Nephi built a ship; All things are possible with God; Whom the Lord calls, the Lord qualifies; Press forward, relying wholly on Him who is mighty to save!

"Look to God and Live"- I'm working on that. Simplifying to the most important things. I love reading your little insights, it helps put things in perspective. Love you daddy!
