Have you ever noticed how Nephi loves the phrase "soften your heart?" When he wanted to understand the dream, he asked the Lord to soften his heart. He seems to use it whenever he needs help from the Lord. He uses the term conversely with his brothers when they "harden their hearts." I'm going to start praying for my heart to be softened about things. It certainly worked for him.

This is something that I have thought about a lot. I feel like that is the constant struggle in life. Keeping your heart open/softening your heart seems like it's the ultimate goal in overcoming the natural man.
ReplyDeleteThe heart... it's so interesting. I hope that I can find a way to make mine always open for the spirit. Then I'd be set.
