Nourish the Faith

Alma 32:40

I know that my faith needs to be nourished and watched over as would a gardener watch over his vineyard or trees. Just like a tree, I must strengthen myself against the elements, and I must be fed with scriptures and the words of the modern prophets and apostles.
Investigators start with faith as a seed. They first try or investigate the Church which then is but a small seed at first. Later on, as they exercise their faith, they seed becomes a sapling which then, if pruned right, can become a mighty tree. All of these things are in accordance with our diligence in keeping the commandments, studying our scriptures, praying often, and fulfilling our callings in the church.
