I love that Nephi explains that he is not writing things that are pleasing unto the world but things that are pleasing unto God and those who are not of the world. He goes ont to say that he shall give a commandment to only fill these plates with things that are of worth.
I had two thoughts on this matter: (1) What am I filling my life with...things that are pleasing unto the world...vacations, amusement parks, movies, tv shows, etc. or things that are of worth...scripture study, FHE, family time. (2) I was humbled. It has been hard for me to get through the whole Book Of Mormon. I hope I can really focus on it this time and not be distracted by the things of the world and I pray that I may read understand it's great worth.
