Learn to teach by study and by faith

"For it came to pass after I had desired to know the things that my father had seen, and believing that the Lord was able to make them known unto me, as I sat pondering in mine heart I was caught away in the Spirit of the Lord, yea, into an exceedingly high mountain, which I never had before seen, and upon which I never had before set my foot" [1 Nephi 11:1]. This is really an uplifting scriptural verse for I have a gained a testimony knowing that our knowledge of God's secret miracles and blessings for us His children starts with a sincere desire in our hearts. If we don't have this sincere devoted desire and longing to search and ponder, we can't obtain anything for we pretend or even work on our own knowledge without His help. It's even more interesting to realize that our Father in Heaven helps us know the truth by sending His Holy Spirit to work in our hearts and minds. As what happened to Nephi, I have a testimony that our kind Father in Heaven can do the same for all of us.
