Lehi and is family are instructed to leave the Valley of Lemuel, but on the morning of their departure the Lord give them the Liahona, which as long as they are faithful and diligent will lead them in the more fertile parts of the land. Nephi breaks his bow but due to his faithfulness and diligence is able to find food for his family. The Lord instructs Nephi to build a ship and he chides his brothers for not being faithful and diligent. After arriving in the promised land, Nephi teaches his family from the scriptures and helps them to see how their separation from Jerusalem is part of the Lord’s plan for His covenant people. Eventually they will all be gathered together in Christ again. This lesson also draws from (1) “The Candle of the Lord” by Elder Boyd K. Packer, available in the January 1983 Ensign, (2) Alma 37:43-45, (3) “Empathy and the Atonement” by Tyler Johnson in BYU Studies 55:4, and (4) Jeremiah 16:14-16.
