When we are physically hungry and thirsty, we immediately know what to do. If we have food and drink available, we partake. How about when we are spiritually hungry? Do you know where to turn? It used to be that it took some calculating work to obtain food. It was a struggle. It was necessary to hunt, and it was necessary to plant. Today, there is still the struggle of securing a job and being diligent so that you can secure a steady paycheck; but, once you have that, it’s quite simple to go to the market and get some food.

Enos Learns and Teaches the Importance of Prayer What do you do when your soul hungers? When we are physically hungry and thirsty, we immediately know what to do.

Jacob 5 Though the Gathering of Israel may seem daunting at times, it’s good to remember that Jesus is the Lord of the Vineyard, and to also remember His mission and the mission of the Church. Moses 1:39: “For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.” Four-fold Mission: Proclaiming the Gospel, Perfecting the Saints, and Redeeming the Dead, and to Care for the Poor and Needy.

Jacob 1:10 How was Nephi a great protector to his people? What responsibilities do those who lead and govern have? Why is it of value to have moral leaders who love the Lord? Nephi protected his people from both physical and scriptural dangers. He taught the people the gospel of Jesus Christ. And he ordained others unto this ministry. Jacob 1:18 Jacob and Joseph were consecrated by Nephi to be priests and teachers. Jacob 2:5–9 Jacob had the difficult task of talking to ...
