Obedience to God’s commandments is a central theme in the scriptures and a key principle in our spiritual journey. Alma counseled his son Helaman on the importance of the commandments and the blessings that come from following them. Let’s start by reading Alma 37:6-7:
“Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, that by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; and small means in many instances doth confound the wise. And the Lord God doth work by means to bring about his great and eternal purposes; and by very small means the Lord doth confound the wise and bringeth about the salvation of many souls.”
