First thought of the night--Sariah. It must take a lot to get the wife of a prophet to murmur that much. I really hope I never bog my husband down with murmuring.

Second thought of the night--to all those complainers who whine that they can't bring their scriptures to seminary/church/sleepover/etc because they are too heavy, try carrying the brass plates through the wilderness!

Third and final thought--Lehi and Nephi were a lot alike. I kind of knew that but didn't know that. Verses 20-22 talk about Nephi and Lehi together--cool, I think!
