Alma reminds his son, Helaman, of the blessings from the Lord to their ancestors. He spoke of the Liahona which worked according to faith in God, and obedience to His commands. Alma states: "...by small means it did show unto them marvelous works..." but if they did not exercise faith in the Lord, and keep His commandments, they "...did not progress in their journey..."So with us, when we fail to pray at least morning and night, study our scriptures daily, attend our church meetings, and become complacent in our obedience and faith, our progression is stopped. When we feel we are "doing well", or "okay", then we are in danger and need to reflect on what we are lacking in our life.
Small course corrections in our lives are easier than breaking large habits and temptations.
