 The first vision I wish to speak of is that of a young man, likely younger than some of you here today. He was the son of a prophet who had just led his family out of Jerusalem into a wilderness and towards a promised land. Somewhere in this wilderness, in response to humble faith and pure desire, Nephi was given a vision of things that his father had seen concerning the tree of life, the future of his family, and even key events in the history of human salvation yet to unfold.
