Dru and Marianna talk about the power of nourishing faith through the analogy of a seed in Alma 32-35. The poor people of the Zoramites had become humble and thus, willing to hear the words of Alma and Amulek. As we plant and nourish the word of Christ in our hearts, it will grow and increase in our heart. Faith is hoping for things that are true. As we hope and act on our hope, the seed can become a tree. But even a tree needs to be nourished or it will die. We can feel the swelling or growth of our faith and these feelings are real. The humble people ask three questions for Alma and Amulek to answer: 1. Should we believe in one God? 2. How should we plant the seed? 3. What manner should we begin to exercise our faith. Alma and Amulek answer those questions in Alma 34-35. There is one God who we should look to for our salvation. Planting the seed and exercising faith is praying to God and looking to Him to help us through this mortal experience. We should pray to Him over all things. The Atonement satisfies the demands of justice and allows us to repent and come unto Him.
