Murmuring.

1 Nephi 2:12
And thus Laman and Lemuel, being the eldest, did murmur against their father. And they did murmur because they knew not the dealings of that God who had created them.

This is probably my fourth time reading the Book of Mormon and for some reason this scripture just stood out to me. Maybe its because I tend to be a complainer and even if I am not complaining out loud its generally happening in my mind, well I want to be different so I am practicing not complaining. Laman and Lemuel complained because they didn't know the dealings of God, I know somewhat of His dealings, I definitely know of His blessings... so I am really going to try harder not to complain and murmur.

This is so true of me! I find myself complaining MUCH too much of the time. I realized that a lot of the time it stems from unrighteous judgment as well. I'm with you on the perfecting myself thing. Better find humility now or Heavenly Father will bless me with a trial to learn it. :)
