2 nephi 1:30 - 2:10 

what can you learn from the counsel lehi gave to zoram and his sons?

--> i love in verse 31 where lehi tells zoram, "because thou hast been faithful thy seed shall be blessed".  i recognize that in life, whatever we do affects so many people besides ourselves.  i look up to my ancestors and their examples.  i appreciate their histories and their life experiences, the legacy that they left me.  i can see first-hand how their righteous influence is benefiting their posterity for years and years to come.  this makes me excited knowing that my righteous influence can affect not only people i come in contact with here, but my children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and people that will live long after i'm gone.  pretty cool.  pretty cool indeed.
