Nephi Chapter 8
What we read...
All about Lehi's dream and his concerns for his sons.
What we learned...
I really loved the last verses of this chapter where it talks about Lehi's concern for his disobedient sons (Laman and Lemuel) . The best part of this is how we can relate so easily to this as parents. Here he has had a vision from God that pretty much tell him that his sons are not going to make it to the tree of life. I have no doubt this makes his heart just mourn with sorrow, but yet he still tries to preach to them, still tries to help them, still believes in them. Lehi is a very good example of a kind and loving Father and what to do with way ward children.
Insights/ Activity
We used a picture of the tree of life to help the girls imagine the dream my clearly. Then tested their knowledge and rewarding them with a slice of a chocolate orange!
