"And it did work for them according to their faith in God; therefore, if they had faith to believe that God could cause that those spindles should point the way they should go, behold, it was done; therefore they had this miracle, and also many other miracles wrought by the power of God, day by day.
Nevertheless, because those miracles were worked by small means it did show unto them marvelous works. They were slothful, and forgot to exercise their faith and diligence and then those marvelous works ceased, and they did not progress in their journey"
Alma 37:40-41
The beginning of our selection is talking about the Liahona. A tool that worked by faith. Interesting, right? Unfortunately, they were slothful, and stopped maintaining their relationship with God, and when they did, they stopped progressing.
Slothfulness I think affects us all occasionally... and it is a good thing to remember that when we are slothful, we aren't going to progress... it's just dead time. In order to become who we want to be, and have a good relationship with God, we have to do those things, every day, that help us progress.
Today, let's remember the small miracles in our lives and not take them for granted. Let's be diligent, and get back on track, and progress towards the happy ending that awaits us. :)
