And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?



 And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?
First Nephi. Chapter Eleven. Verse 2.


The desire for knowledge of God --
of His plans and designs
of His purpose for me
is inconsistent at times in me.

At times unpaid bills and bodily pains,
the unaccountable rush and halt,
the unraveling state of my being,
 leave my heart ponderless.

So I am left to wonder --
can I desire things aright?
Am I meek,
or just shallow?

Shallow desires crowd me.
O, give me strength
to push back --
to move mountains in my mind!
